high degree of accuracy, what
method of finding detai1s is
recommended?
1.
Transit and tape
2.
Transit and stadia
3.
Transit and trigonometric
leveling
4.
EDM and level

high degree of accuracy, what
method of locating details is
recommended?
1.
Transit and tape
2.
Transit and stadia
3.
Transit and trigonometric
leveling
4.
EDM and level
Which of the following actions
should you take to avoid
overcrowding and confusion when
sketching details during fieldwork?
1.
Use azimuths instead of
deflection angles
2.
Use numbers and legends for a
large number of details
3.
Both 1 and 2 above
4.
