Plane Surveying
Geodetic Surveying
Curvature of the
earth is not taken in to consideration
In this curvature of
earth is considered.
In plane Surveying,
line joining any two points of triangle formed by any three points is
considered as straight line and plane triangle are assumed to be plane
angles.
In geodetic
surveying line joining two points of triangle formed by three points is considered
as curved line of spherical triangle and angles of triangle are considered as
spherical angles.
This survey is done
on smaller area less than 250km2
This survey is done
on large area greater than 250 km2
Required accuracy is
competitively low.
High accuracy is
required
Simple methods and
instruments can be used as the required accuracy is low.
Very refined methods
and instruments are used.
