3. What is geodesics?
4. Differeciate between Geodesic and Normal section
5. List methods of computing the direct and indirect Geodetic problems for a short
medium and Long geodesic. Which of the formular is most appropriate for Nigeria
environment.
6. Chord, normal section and geodesic are lines used in Geodesy’ Discus
Discuss the most appropeiate line used for computational purposes on the elipsoid
7. The geodetic coordinates in Wailo, Ganjuwa LGA of Bauchi State is Ф=10 0 40’ 27.3”
λ= 100 12’ 46.5” compute the geodetic coordinates of a bridge located at distance
652,645.586m on a geodetic Azimuth (α) of 60 0 25’ 36” from Wailo. Identity the
Universal Traverse Mercactor’s Zone where to find the bridge.
