The route survey may be defined as the survey operation carried out in establishing the horizontal and vertical alignments of the specified area of land needs for social utilities such as highways, railways, transmission lines, pipelines etc. the route survey entails carrying out a longitudinal/profile sectional leveling, cross-section leveling and detailing of the road. The first two are level exercise that involves a process of measuring the difference in heights between two points on the earth surface. The longitudinal section involves running the measurements along the centerline of the road, while, the cross-section provides information of the heights of either side of the line. The detailed survey involves taking measurements of the current existing features of both sides of the road from the center line. The method employed in this exercise is the traditional ground survey method of data acquisition which includes reconnaissance, monumentation, traversing, leveling and detailing. The field procedures involve taking measurements of coordinates, bearings, distances and height differences using these instruments: GPS, Total station, tape, pegs, and cutlass. The data obtained is processed using Arithmetic Logic Unit and software like Civil CAD to produce a longitudinal section plan, a cross-section plan, a detailed survey plan and a DTM of the road using a suitable scale on a paper medium. ...Preview Download Preview +Other Surveying and Geoinformatics project topics and materials you might be interested in»Route survey of Umuokoto (assemblies junction) to mechanic village in Owerri west local government area of Imo state»Route survey alignment design and volume computation of Saabo Eleke road from Oranyan junction to Olorunla village, Atiba local government area, Oyo state»Detailed/topographic survey of a section of Federal Polytechnic Nekede, Owerri»Layout survey of housing area P (pocket) residence in Owerri West local government of Imo state»Application of GIS in mapping the locational pattern of hotels in Owerri municipal»Perimeter survey of Federal Polytechnic Nekede, Owerri, Imo state»Route survey of Avu-Oforola road in Owerri West local government area, Imo State»Topographic survey of Ikenegbu girls secondary school Owerri Imo state»Application of GIS in tourism in Owerri»Utility mapping of college of administration and social science studies (CASSS) Kaduna Polytechnic Bye Pass Campus, Unguwan Television, Kaduna State»Electricity distribution information system of Adewole Estate Ilorin, Kwara state using GIS approach»Flood hazard risk and assessment in owerri zone, Imo state»Topographical and detailed survey of a section of Federal Polytechnic Nekede»Infrastructural mapping of part of Narayi and Ungwan pama Chikun local government area Kaduna state»Land information system for Kajuru of Kajuru local government area, Kaduna state
