Surveying is an art and science of determining the
relative positions of various points on the surface
of the earth.
By measuring the horizontal and vertical distances,
angles and taking the details of these points and by
preparing map or plants.

Surveys can be simplified into various categories depending on the purposes, instruments, methods used and the nature of the field.
Why classification of surveying Why classification of surveying is important? is important?
So apply these rules in surveying classification is important. There are some fundamental principals of surveying that.. Always work from the whole to the part, and To locate a new stations by at least two measurements from the fixed reference points.
