    Engineering Surveying Questions Part I - Multiple Choice: 1. Which The Following Is Not A Use of Contour Maps?

    Uploaded by

    Andenet Ashagrie
    The document contains an engineering surveying exam with multiple choice, true/false, and short answer questions. The multiple choice questions cover topics like the uses of contour maps, types of errors in reciprocal leveling, definitions of precision, and statements about control surveys. The true/false questions address the number of GPS satellites needed to locate a point and how parallax is affected by elevation. The short answer questions ask why horizontal and vertical angles are measured in double face and what coordinate system is used in Ethiopia.
