Traversing survey involves measuring distances and angles between survey points to establish control networks, typically using linear measurements and compass or theodolite readings. Triangulation survey, on the other hand, relies on the principle of triangulation to determine the positions of points by measuring the angles of a triangle formed by sighting distant landmarks. Triangulation surveys are more accurate over long distances and are commonly used in geodetic surveys, while traversing surveys are more suitable for smaller-scale projects and local mapping.

Traverse survey can change to any shape which accommodate a great deal of different terrain while Triangulation survey is fixed to use of triangles
difference between survey and experiment
A sample survey is asked of a limited group of people, while a census is conducted in an attempted to get an answer from all people in a geographical area.
A survey is usually a completely open evaluation of something or a surveying of land to make maps. Surveillance, on the other hand is a secretive watch on a suspected person or people.
The population is a group of interest, such as the people who filled out a recent survey about their age. The parameter is the descriptive measure of that population. So in this example, a parameter could be the average age of the people who filled out the survey.
A population survey, better known as a census, entails the collection of each unit in the population. In sample survey information is collected from a subset of the population. The subset, or sample, needs to be selected carefully so that it is representative of the whole population and, if that requirement is met, statistics based on the sample are good estimators for the corresponding population parameters.
