In the accompanying sketch, a vertical angle of −14°30' is read to a target 1.75m above point M. The measured inclined distance (S) is 644.15m and the elevation of point K is 320.70m above mean sea level. If the height of instrument at K is 1.27m, the elevation of M, considering the effects of the earth's curvature and atmospheric refraction, is?

Control Survey and Geodetic reductions

Control surveys or survey controls are used to establish reference points as a basis for various construction activities. Vertical and horizontal control points are to be established in a control survey to increase accuracy. After establishing the control points, all other types of surveys such as topographic, right-of-way, aerial mapping, construction layout, boundary surveys, and utility mapping can be worked upon so that control networks can be formed. The place from which the observations are made is called a survey station.
