The progressive method of
horizontal location is performed in
what manner?
1.
Establishing several known
points from one setup
2.
Establishing an unknown point
as a known point by alignment
and distance for use as the
next point
3.
Establishing an unknown point
as a known point from several
previously known points
4.
Using an existing traverse to
plot all points for the
topographic map
Which of the following advantages
apply to plane-table surveying?
1.
Errors in measurements are
easily checked
2.
It reduces the possibility of
overlooking important data
3.
It combines data collection and
the drafting operation
4.
Each of the above

Less points
3.
The same amount
Which of the following
disadvantages apply to the
plane-table method?

Unsuitable for wooded areas
2.
Adverse weather conditions
3.
More difficult to transport the
equipment
4.
All of the above
8-23.
What method is recommended to keep
the blade aligned with the occupied
point?
1.
Use two triangles to draw a
parallel line with the
telescope straightedge
2.
Use a pin as a pivot point
3.
Use two triangles to pivot
around a pin
4.
Clamp the blade in place
8-24.
What is the purpose of using buff
or green detail paper?
1.
Provides a good background
2.
Reduces the glare
3.
Absorbs the ink to reduce runs
4.
Reproduces well
8-25.
In maintaining the plane-table
drawing, you should follow which of
the following drafting practices?
1.
Clean the paper at the end of
the day to remove graphite
2.
Use a soft lead pencil to
prevent smudging
3.
Lift the blade when moving it
to prevent smudging
4.
All of the above
8-26.
A possible source of error in your
plane-table work is
1.
the sights are too short for
accurate sketching
2.
too few points for good
sketching
3.
the use of aerial photographs
4.
the use of the same points to
locate details and contours
8-27.

following conditions are met to
keep mistakes and errors in
plane-table work to a minimum?
1.
Table is level
2.
Orientation is maintained
3.
Both 2 and 3 above
4.
Perform traverse and detailing
simultaneously
