Planning A Survey Planning requires a well rounded
understanding of surveying practices Process:
1. Choice of accuracy required (depends on use to be made)
1. Basic Control2. Topographic3. Photogrammetry
Planning A Survey2. Existing Control
1. Search records for existing control in area1. Illinois Geological Survey – Urbana, IL2. National Geodetic Survey – Rolla, MO or Rockville,
Maryland
3. Reconnaissance:1. Search Procedure:
1. Description often dated2. Can use GPS receiver (Lat. And Long)3. Probe, detectors – often problems - brass
Planning A Survey4. Choice of Instruments and Methods
1. Depends on availability, location, existing features, and accuracy
5. Computation and Drafting
Accuracy and Errors Accuracy depends on:
1. Precise instruments2. Precise Methods3. Good Planning
Example: Angle turned with theodolite, pointed with care; readings checked thus good precision. Angle’s of 2-3” expected, real results angle’s 15” = accuracy
Errors 3 Types
1. Blunders 2. Systematic Error3. Accidental Error
Blunder is a mistake, to help eliminate:1. Every value to be recorded must be checked
by some independent field observation
Errors2. Once check indicates that there is no blunder,
field record must never be changed or destroyed
3. An overall check must be applied to every control survey. Make as many overall checks as possible.
Errors Systematic Error – an error that under the same
conditions will always be of same size and sign. Basic Rules to Eliminate:
1. All surveying equipment must be designed and used so that whenever possible systematic errors will be eliminated automatically
2. Systematic error which can not be eliminated must be evaluated and their relationship to conditions that cause them must be determined.
Example: Temperature Corrections
Errors Accidental Errors – (random errors)
represent the limit of precision in the determination of a value
Corrected be laws of probability Compass Rule and Least Squares
Hydrographic Surveys1. Surveys and mapping of bodies of water and
shorelines 2. Rivers and Lakes – Process different
2. Rivers 2. Normal process is to establish 2 parallel lines of control
points on opposite sides3. River Portion: 2 processes
2. EDM similar to radial3. Dual instrument with position by angle and intersection
3. Lakes2. Normal process same as river but generally do not have
current problems
Overall Process:1. Establish control points both horizontal and
vertical2. Preplan where sections are to be taken (this is
basis for control points on shore)3. Cross sections taken4. If EDM, radials taken from control points due to
difficulty in obtaining shots under 300’5. May have to combine cross sections and radial
location to pick up anomalies not covered by cross sections
Gauging Stations Purpose is to install either manually read or
automatic gauges to determine stream, river, lake, or ocean elevations
Process:1. Establish system of BM’s throughout area gauges
will be installed2. Establish elevation mark at site for installation3. After gauges are installed, check elevation of
each
Topographic Surveys 6 Basic Methods1. Radial2. Plus/Offset
2. Plus Offset2. Establish baseline (Often centerline), establish
points at station interval 50’, 100’, 200’3. Tie planimetric data by distance down line plus
distance right or left (looking up stationing)4. Establish elevations on station points then elevation
out a predetermined distance with shots at breaks
Topographic Surveys4. Due additional section to locate features in between
stations5. Equipment: Tape, Level, Rod, Transit, - Right Angle
Prism?2. Grid Method
1. Take cross Section Groups and Combine2. Establish Grid baseline – often property line3. Establish Perpendicular line4. Both Marked at grid interval (25’, 50’)5. Planimetric tied plus/offset in each grid6. Grid laid out by double taping7. Field notes 1 – 2 grids/page
Topographic Surveys3. Photogrammetry
1. Limitations1. Trees – Leaves off – no large growths of coniferous2. Ground Cover – grass, thick weeds and vines, snow3. Clear Sky4. Tall Buildings Due to these Limitations Illinois only has on the
average of 2 weeks flying time
Topographic Surveys Scale – Photo S = (f/H’) Coordinates From Photos XA = (xa/f)(H-ha) YA = (ya/f)(H-ha) Height of an object r = radial dist. to top d = radial dist. to top – radial
dist. to bottom h= d (H’) / r
Topographic Surveys4. GPS: Total Station System
1. Basic of GPS1. Topo with GPS2. Topo: Trimble Total Station (RTK)
2. Limitations:1. Must be able to maintain satellite signal – Trees,
Building2. Signal Reflection (Multipath) – Buildings, Fences,
Roofs3. Debate over elevation (0.15’ +/- my belief)
Topographic Surveys5. Trace Contour
1. Used to identify several contours around an area
6. Plane Table Surveys1. Rarely used2. Method prepares a manuscript map in the field
Mapping and Map Drafting 2 Basic Types of Maps used in
Engineering1. Line Drawing2. Photogrametrically prepared manuscript or
orthophoto map
Mapping and Map Drafting1. Datum in Mapping:
Datum used to correlate measurements, to determine elevations and horizontal positions for points at different locations
Topographic Maps using Symbols Show:1. Spatial configuration of Earths surface
(contours)2. Natural Features (Lakes, Rivers, etc.)3. Physical Changes caused by man
Mapping and Map Drafting2. Planning Maps
Used in planning Engineering work or overall planning at the urban, Regional, or National Levels
3. Plotting Contours: Interpolation:
1. Estimation2. Computation
Mapping and Map Drafting4. Contours
Characteristics of Contours:1. Horizontal distance between contour lines is inversely
proportionate to the slope2. Uniform slopes have contours evenly spaced 3. Along plane surfaces (manmade) contour lines are
straight and parallel4. Contour lines are perpendicular to lines of steepest slope 5. All contours close upon themselves6. Different contours do not merge or cross one another
(except vertical walls, overhangs, cliffs) on map
Mapping and Map Drafting Factors that influence choice of map scale
1. Clarity with which features can be shown2. Cost (larger scale – higher cost) 3. Correlation of Map data with related maps4. Desired size of map sheet5. Physical factors (number and character), nature
of terrain, required contour interval
Mapping and Map Drafting5. Map Classifications
Based on American Society of Civil Engineering, Surveying, and Mapping Division
1. Design Maps: Used to design and construct
6. Information shown on Maps:
Mapping and Map Drafting1. The following should be on a map:
1. Direction of Meridian (North)2. Graphical Scale (Bar in case of reduction)3. Legend or key of symbols4. Title Block (identifiers)5. Contour Interval6. Datum to which both Horizontal and Vertical are
Referenced7. If coordinate base used – what system
Mapping and Map Drafting2. If map is to become public record (subdivision).
It must contain in addition to the above:1. Length of each line2. Direction of each line (bearing or angles)3. Subdivision numbering system (lot and block)4. Location and Kind of monuments5. Names of property owners (on site and adjacent)6. Full description of Boundary7. Certificate of Surveyor that map is correct
Planning and Estimating from Topo Maps1. Purpose of Topo maps2. Profiles3. Grade contour4. Drainage Area
Limits determined by following characteristics:1. Begins and ends at the point in the stream to which it applies2. Passes through every saddle that divides drainage area3. Often follows ridges
5. Reservoir Capacity
