Description
4PDH- Correcting your survey measurements for the size and shape of the earth instead of accumulating these errors in your traverse can triple or quadruple the accuracy of your survey control. 
The workshop will cover: 
1. Understanding the concept of projections 
2. Understanding the concepts of the State Plane Coordinate System. 
3. The calculation of the grid & elevation factor. 
4. Understanding NGS Data Sheets. 
5. The computation of NAD83 State Plane Coordinates. 
This workshop will be a hands-on interactive workshop where attendees will be expected to bring a survey quality calculator which will be used to calculate the State Plane Coordinates for several survey traverses in class.
