Question
The method of plane tabling commonly used for establishing the instrument stations only, is a:
A.
Method of radiation
B.
Method of intersection
C.
Method of traversing
D.
Method of resection
Answer ( Option D)

Method of resection

Solution

Plane table surveying: It is a graphical method of surveying in which the fieldwork and plotting are carried out simultaneously.
 
Principle: The rays drawn from different points should pass through a single point i.e position of station point.
 
Methods:
1) Radiation method: It is adopted when the points to be plotted are intervisible and accessible from a single instrument station. Orientation is not required because only one instrument station is required.
 
2) Intersection method: It is adopted when the points to be plotted are intervisible but inaccessible. Orientation is required.
 
3) Traversing method: The traverse is directly plotted on the paper by drawing the traverse lines with the alidade. No angle measuring instrument is used.
 
4) Resection method: Resection is a general term used or the process of determining the location of the instrument station. The principle of resection is opposite to that of the intersection method.
