Control Survey and Geodetic reductions

Control surveys or survey controls are used to establish reference points as a basis for various construction activities. Vertical and horizontal control points are to be established in a control survey to increase accuracy. After establishing the control points, all other types of surveys such as topographic, right-of-way, aerial mapping, construction layout, boundary surveys, and utility mapping can be worked upon so that control networks can be formed. The place from which the observations are made is called a survey station.

5. A surveying instructor sent all the 40 students in his class out to measure a distance between two points marked on a runway. The students working in groups of four came up with 10 different measurements as follows: 920.45, 921.05, 921.65, 920.25, 920.15, 921.85, 921.95, 920.45, 921.15, and 921.35 meters. Assuming these values are equally reliable and that variations result only from accidental errors, determine the relative precision of single measurement and the relative precision of the mean.
