Horizontal control : Determine the mean horizontal circle readings for the identified target points from your allocated instrument position.

Horizontal control

Using a Total station, the horizontal angular measurement of some identified target points are required to be taken from specific station positions within the K-block site (Refer to practical survey Risk Assessment in Appendix 4).

a)    Record the horizontal circle readings for the target points in the booking sheet shown in Appendix 3.

b)    Determine the mean horizontal circle readings for the identified target points from your allocated instrument position.

c)    Evaluate the mean horizontal angles for the target points.

d)    Describe with annotated sketches the process you obtained the horizontal angular measurements on-site using a Total Station from your allocated instrument position.
