What do surveyors do? - Answer-take and analyze measurements What do surveyors measure? - Answer-measure distance, angles, and positions How do plane surveys and geodetic surveys differ? - Answer-Plane surveying: the surface of the earth is considered as plane and the curvature of the earth is neglected. Most of engineering and property surveys are considered plane surveys. Geodetic surveys: the curvature of the earth is considered. Geodetic surveys used for traditional surveys like na...
