1 When creating a map used for planning or drainage studies

1) When creating a map used for planning or drainage studies, which of the following scales would be most appropriate? B) 1-=800 C) ¼\"= 1 mile E) 1:1, 1,000,000 2) If you were scaling from a plan with a scale of 1\" = 20\' and you measured 11 ¼\", what scaled distance would that represent? A) 11 4 B) 11.25 C) 225\" D) 225 E) 220 If you were preparing a roadway plan used for construction, what metho of drawing would be most appropriate? 3.) A) mapping B) scaling C) drafting D) estimating E) sketching ) X, Y,Z coordinates refer to which of the following in the same order A) elevation, distance, direction B) elevation, easting, northing easting, northing, elevation ) northing, easting, westing E) height, depth, width

Solution

1. C , map scale of 1\"= 4 mile is generally used for planning and drainage studies. this map come under Topographical maps. (3 major type of maps are cadastral, topographical and Chorographical/Atlas)

2 C , 11 1/4\" or 11.25\". 1\" = 20\', 11.25\" = 11.25\"x20 = 225\'

3. C , drafting
4 C (Universal Transverse Mercator coordinate system), although diffrent regions use different conventions

for example

UK surveyors and GIS follows UTM convention

surveyors in USA and Canada follows this,
