Objective

- Provides horizontal control for reference and control for other survey.Example
- Determines the position of the boundary mark, as is done in the cadastral survey.

- To determine the bearing and the distance of an obstructed line(cannot be directly measured
due to an obstruction)
- To determine the area of a place.

Conclusion

For this booking survey, the most important thing that we must follow is the
measurement of distance and bearing must be accurate in order to prevent from getting the
parallex, gross, and the other error that can occur. In engineering work , traverse are used as
control survey to locate topographic detail for the preparation of plans to lay out engineering
works and for the processing and ordering the earthwork and other engineering quantities. It
should be noted that many of the new technologies provide topographic and environmental
data. In order to increase of new technologies, students also must know how to conduct and
familiar with the basic and manual operations of this equipment such as total station,compass
and prism.The allowable control traverse is not less than 1:8000. Hence our ratio is 1:13091 ,
so our measurement of distance and bearing are in a good condition.
