This course applies concepts learned in Survey Trigonometry to typical surveying problems. Topics include networks, intersections, resections, traverse adjustments, horizontal circular curves, straight grades, and vertical curves. Upon successful completion of this course, students will be able to compute solutions to a variety of survey-related problems.
