Methods used for the calculation of areas in Surveying

Methods used for the calculation of areas in Surveying:


  1. Simpson’s rule
  2. Trapezoidal rule
  3. Graphical rule

Simpson’s Rule

Statement
It states that, sum of first and last ordinates has to be done. Add twice the sum of remaining odd ordinates and four times the sum of remaining even ordinates. Multiply to this total sum by 1/3rd of the common distance between the ordinates which gives the required area.
Where O1, O2, O3, …. On are the lengths of the ordinates
x = common distance
n = number of divisions

Note:

This rule is applicable only if ordinates are odd, i.e. even number of divisions.
If the number of ordinates are even, the area of last division maybe calculated separated and added to the result obtained by applying Simpson’s rule to two remaining ordinates.
Even if first or last ordinate happens to be zero, they are not to be omitted from Simpson’s rule.
The following offsets are taken from a chain line to an irregular boundary towards right side of the chain line.
0ffset y1 y2 y3 y4 y5 y6 y7
magnitude 7 13 16 17 21 26 14
Common distance, x = 90m
Area = x/3[(O1+O7) + 2 (O3+O5)+4(O2+O4+O6)]
= 90/3[(7+14)+2(16+21)+4(13+17+26)]
Area = 9,570sqm

Practically every computing device has the ability to copy files. The Windows operating system and the Command Prompt are no different. The basic command for copying files from the Command Prompt is the COPY command. If you wanted to use COPY to copy a file called test.txt to the root directory of a USB flash drive assigned the letter J: COPY test.txt J:\ The command will create a copy of test.txt in the root directory of the J drive. Like most Command Prompt commands, COPY assumes that you will be copying files from the working directory, and looks there first to find the filenames you specify. However, you can also use COPY with absolute file paths. If test.txt were in the Users directory of the C...
