1. To be able to learn what is OF SURVEYING
measurement of distance.
Measurement of Distance
2. To be able to learn the
concept of distance by pacing The accurate determination of
the distance between two points
3. To be able to learn what is on any surface is one of the
distance by tachymetry using basic operations of plane
stadia method and subtense bar surveying. Such linear
method. measurements are understood to
mean the horizontal distance.
4. To be able to learn the
distance by graphical and There are several methods
mathematical methods of determining distance. The
choice depends on the purpose
5. To be able to learn the for which the measurements is
distance by mechanical devices intended, the required
precision, the cost, and other
6. To be able to learn the conditions. In surveying, the
distance of photogrammetry. commonly employed methods of
linear measurement include
pacing, taping, tachymetric,
