BAR-OS6 TOPOGRAPHIC SYSTEMS
Time hours Maximum Marks: 70
Note: Attempt any five questions. All questions carry equal marks. Use of calculator is permitted.
1.
Classify surveying on the basis of object of survey. 7
What are the uses of contour maps? Discuss how the capacity of a reservoir is determined by a contour map. 7
2.
What is theodolite survey? Explain the various parts of a theodolite. 7
A and B are two points on the opposite sides of a pond. The Surveyor establishes a line AC clear of the pond such that B is visible from C. He establishes another point D on the line CB produced so that the line AD is also clear of the pond. If distances AC, CB, BD and DA are 300 150 175 m and 250 m respectively, find the distance AB. 7
3.
Explain true bearing, magnetic bearing, whole circle bearing and arbitrary bearing. 7
In a closed traverse ABCDE the bearing of a line AB was 150°30'. The included angles were: -LA L B L C L D 135°34' and L E 59°9'. Determine the bearings of all the lines. 7
4.
Define the terms -Height of Instrument, Backsight, Foresight, Turning point, Intermediate sight. 7
Discuss the effect of curvature of earth and refraction in levelling. 7
5.
Explain how the vertical angles between two points are determined with the help of theodolite. 7
What is sensitivity of bubble? What are the factors affecting it 7
6.
What is reciprocal levelling? Explain with a suitable example. 7
Discuss the three-point problem. 7
7.
Explain cross-sectioning and profile levelling. 7
A river is flowing from west to east. For determining its width two points A and B are selected on the southern bank such. that the distance AB 80 m. Point A is westward. The bearings of a tree C on the northern bank are observed to be 380 and 3380 from A and B respectively. Find the width of the river. 7
8. Write short notes on any four of the following: 4*3 1/2 =14
Fundamentals of GIS
Site Survey Technique
Aspects of Surveying for the Architect
Degree of Accuracy
Height of Instrument Method
Radiation Method
