WHAT IS SURVEY?
Surveying is one of the basic areas in Civil Engineering which includes linear and angular
measurement of the relative positions of the points on the surface of the earth. In surveying, the
measurements are taken in the horizontal and vertical planes.

OBJECTIVE OF SURVEY CAMP

engineering survey and increases confidents.
 To become familiar with the surveying problems that are arise in during the field work.
 Familiar with the spirit and important of team work.
