What is the difference between plane survey and geodetic survey?

Plain surveying means the survey in which earth surface is considered as to be flat or plain i.e. its curvature is ignored. Geodetic survey is the survey in which curvature of the earth is taken into count and then surveying is done.


What is the similarity between plane surveying and geodetic surveying?

Who is are responsible for providing maps charts digitized products and precise geodetic coordinates?

The responsibility for providing maps, charts, digitized products, and precise geodetic coordinates typically falls to national mapping agencies and geospatial organizations. In many countries, these tasks are handled by government institutions, such as the United States Geological Survey (USGS) in the U.S. or the Ordnance Survey in the UK. Additionally, private companies and research institutions may also contribute to the production and dissemination of geospatial data.


What is geodetic theodolite?

A geodetic theodolite is a precise surveying instrument used to measure horizontal and vertical angles in geodetic surveying. It is designed for high-accuracy measurements required in geodetic surveying applications such as mapping, construction, and infrastructure development. Geodetic theodolites are typically equipped with electronic distance measurement capabilities for increased accuracy and efficiency.
