Methods of Surveying

Surveying is the practice to determine the relative three-dimensional positions of various points on the earth’s surface. This is done by computing the vertical and horizontal distances, angles between the points, collecting the observations, and plotting them on a map of any appropriate scale. Accuracy can be achieved by using the latest instruments like a theodolite, tachometer, etc. Leveling is a subdivision of surveying where the objective is to locate the elevation of objects considering a datum level.

Sir Alfonse sent out five students to measure a distance between two points marked on the ground using their pace factor. The students came up with the following five different values: 50.13, 47.90, 51.04, 50.47, and 48.22 meters. Assuming these values are equally reliable and that variations result from accidental errors, determine the most probable value of the distance measured.
