The fifth edition of this classic textbook sets out the essential techniques needed for a solid grounding in the surveying. The popular and trusted textbook covers the traditional topics such as levelling, measurement of angles, measuring distances, and how to carry out traversing and compute coordinates, as well as the latest technological advances. It is packed with clear illustrations, exercises and worked examples, making it both a comprehensive study aid for students and a reliable reference tool for practitioners. This text is aimed at students studying surveying as either part of a civil engineering, building or construction course or as a separate discipline. It is also useful for st...
This book examines the major changes in the technology now used for the measurement and processing of topographic and non-topographic spatial data, with emphasis on the new and emerging technology and its applications. Fundamental principles are introduced to explain the basic operation of different types of equipment.
This manual provides guidance on performing detailed site surveys of military installation facilities and civil works projects. Technical specifications, procedural guidance, and quality control criteria are outlined for developing large-scale site plans used for engineering drawings of planned projects, or detailed as-built feature mapping of completed facilities.
An examination of current developments in terrain modelling and its application to civil engineering design, land and hydrographic surveying, development planning and computer visualization for civil and military applications.

This updated and expanded edition of the book includes four additional chapters on earthwork on sloping sites; transitional curves and super elevation; calculations of super elevations on composite curves; and underground mine surveying. Richly illustrated with diagrams, equations and tables as well as examples of every day survey tasks. It also covers new topics, such as the global navigation satellite system’s (Real Time Kinematic-RTK), which are increasingly used in a wide range of everyday engineering applications.
U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Technical Engineering and Design Guides No. 29 includes the new electronic surveying methods that have changed conventional equipment and procedures in topographic surveying.
