Topographical Survey: Survey which gives accurate map showing the correct position of the all the important

natural features such as rivers, streams, hills, lakes and artificial constructions such as roads, rails, important public buildings and communal lands such as parks and burrial grounds.Used for academic and military or stratergic purpose. Measured using Theolite for framework and plane-table for detailing. Revenue Survey (Cadastral Survey): Survey which is directly connected to land revenue. Survey records forms the basis of Revenue Administration. Furnishes innformation regarding topographical details, but with additional particulars such as boundaries, area, classification, sort of soil of very holding. Beneficial for both to Government and the ryots. Measured using Theolite for Main/Sub circuit and individual fields by Diagonal & Offset method (Chain and cross-staff). Revenue Field: Piece of land registered separately in the revenue records. Unit in the revenue record is revenue field. Survey Field: Framework which holds the revenue field. The revenue fields are clubbed to make up a survey unit, which is termed as survey field. Unit adopted in a Revenue survey is survey field. Formation of Survey Field: Classification Wet Extent Remarks 2 Hecatres or 5 Sub divisions above 20, area < 80 acres ares Dry 4 Hectares or 10 Sub divisions above 20, area < 160 acres ares Long/ Narrow Length ~ 200 N/A Fields meters Single holding No Limit Minor circuit Fields measured using Theolite Sub circuit (Khandam): land. Theolite Survey: Resurvey: 1. Fields are formed on the basis of records ans maps of previous survey. 2. Localisation of Holdings(Location work):The step of verifying and putting in the subdivisions in accordance with the present enjoyment 40-80 Ha for wet land and 80-120 Ha for dry Framework into which survey fileds are fitted.

3. Rough Location Sketch: Contains boundaries of the old survey and those of the new survey marked differently and the subdivisions numbered separately and the old areas shown along with localisation of holdings. 4. Land Register: Prepared from Rough location sketch and revenue accounts. 5. Fair Location Sketch: Omit the names of the holders from the rough location sketch. 6. Correlation Statement: Statement showing new survey field and subdivision corresponding to every old survey number and letter.

7. Demarcation: Markings off the boundaries on the ground in accordance with enjoyment and possession.

(a) All points at which the theolite is setup i.e along village boundaries, khandams & minor circuits (b) Field trijunctions and the ends of G lines (c) All bends and points of demarcation along Poraboke field and subdivision boundaries. (d) At bends of survey fields and subdivisions belonging to or vested in local bodies.

8.

Equalisation of bends: Curves or bend in the bund equalised by one straight line which gives a regular boundary eliminating multiple bends.

Cases where equalisation of bends not to be used: (a) When more than two holdings are involved (b) When the classification and tenure of the holdings are different (c) When trees exist along boundaries (d) When the curve in the bend is too wide i.e more than 2m from the st. line in wet land and more than 4m in dry land.
