  • e
    Write the benefits of using EDM in surveying
  • f
    Which two branches divided in terrestrial photogrammetry?
  • g
    Write the principle of remote sensing
Section BAttempt any three o f t h e f o l l o w i n g : 7 x 3 = 21
  • a
    An old plan of a field was made to a scale of 1 cm= 15m. The area of the plan was measured by a planimeter and was found to be 115.5 cm2. It was later that the plan had shrunk so that a line originally 10 cm long now measure 9.75 cm only. There was also a note that the 30 m chain used was 5 cm too short. Find the true area of the field
  • b
    What do you mean by the shift of transition curve? How is the length of transition curve selected
  • c
    A EDM slope distance AB is determined to be 672.243m. The EDM instruments is 1.815 m above station A and the prism is 1.195 m above station B. The EDM instrument is mounted on a theodolite whose optical center is 1.700 m above the station. The theodolite was used to measure t he vertical angle to a target on the prism pole, which is measured as 5o 45’ 34” . The target pole is 1.800 m above station B. Compute the horizontal distanc e AB and the elevation of station B, If the elevation of station A is 345.472 m
  • d
    Obtain an expression of elevat ion of a point by photographic measurement
  • e
    Explain with sketch different types of remote sensing
Section CAttempt any one p a r t o f t h e f o l l o w i n g : 7 x 1 = 7
