    The geodetic survey is used to determine the size, shape, and figure of the Earth through measuring its geometry, gravity, and surface. It has applications in determining Earth's motion, plate tectonics motion, gravity variations, 3D positioning, and is the backbone for mapping. Key terms defined include: the physical Earth survey describes the habitable surface of Earth; a spherical triangle is a triangle on a sphere with interior angles summing to 180 degrees; spherical excess is when the interior angles of a spherical triangle sum to more than 180 degrees; an equipotential surface is a surface where all points have the same gravitational potential; mean sea level is the average height of the sea used to measure elevations on land;

    Q1/Define the Geodetic survey then show its application fields?

    -Determination the earth size(geometry), shape (gravity ) and figure (surface).

    1-Determination of the earth motion.


    2-Determination Plant tectork motion.
    3-Gravity variations.
    4-3D Positioning.
    5-The backbone for mapping.

    Q2/Define each of them:-


    A)The physical Eatth survey: It is a Place for live and can do everything in it.
    B)Spherical triangle: It's a triangle from three brackets for large circle, The sum
    of angle 180<
    C)Spherical excess: Increase the angles of the triangle From 180.
    D)Equipotential surface: It’s a surface each point on it by the same Equipotential.
    E)Mean sea level: It's an average used to measure the height of the ground.
    F)Geoid: It's the Surface of equal Potential of the earth’s gravitational Field.
    G)Geoid undulations: Atmospheric Presses changes wife altitude.
