FUNDAMENTALS OF SURVEYING : Principles of Surveying

Principles of Surveying:
The fundamental principles upon which the various methods of surveying are based are:
1.         Location of a point by measurement from two points of reference
After deciding the position ofpoint, its reference must be kept at least from two permanent objects or stations whose position have already been well defined.
2.         Working from whole to part
This is to localize minor errors and to prevent accumulation of errors. First a control points are established with higher precision for large area and minor control points are then established within the main area with less precise methods.
If reverse process is repeated, then errors will expand to greater magnitudes.
