STATION- It is a point of importance at the beginning or at
the end of a survey line.
DETAIL LINE- If the important objects are far away from the
main lines, the offset readings are too large, which results
into inaccuracies and time-consuming in the field work. In
such cases the secondary lines are run by selecting stations on
main lines.
