Q: In a geodetic survey the surface of the earth is considered:
  • A. Vertical
  • B. Curved
  • C. Inclined
  • D. Horizontal
Correct Answer: Option B - Geodetic Survey– Survey in which the shape (curvature) of earth's surface is taken into account and a higher degree of precision is exercised in linear and angular measurement is termed as geodetic surveying. Plane Survey– Survey in which the mean surface of earth is regarded as plane surface and not curved as it really is, known as plane surveying.
