Aeromagnetic surveys are widely used to aid in the production ...File inview UAV medium.jpg right thumb The InView UAV is starting to be used in aeromagnetic surveys. An aeromagneticsurvey is a common type of geophysical survey carried out using a magnetometer aboard or towed behind an aircraft. The principle is similar to a magnetic survey carried out with a hand held magnetometer, but allows much larger areas of the Earth s surface to be covered quickly for regional reconnaissance. The aircraft typically flies in a grid like pattern with height and line spacing determining the resolution of the data and cost of the survey per unit area . As the aircraft flies, the magnetometer records tiny variations in the intensity of the ambient magnetic field due to the temporal effects of the constantly varying solar wind and spatial variations in the Earth s magnetic field , the latter being due both to the regional magnetic field, and the local effect of magnetic minerals in the Crust geology Earth s crust . By subtracting the solar and regional effects, the resulting aeromagnetic map shows the spatial distribution and relative abundance of magnetic minerals most commonly the iron oxide mineral magnetite in the upper levels of the crust. Because different rock types differ in their content of magnetic minerals, the magnetic map allows a visualization ... where bedrock is obscured by surface sand, soil or water.

The term geological survey can be used to describe both the conduct of a surveying survey for geological purposes and an institution holding geological information. A geological survey is the systematic investigation of the subsurface of a given piece of ground for the purpose of creating a geological map or scientific model model . A geological survey employs techniques from the traditional walk over survey, studying outcrop s and landforms , to intrusive methods, such as hand augering and machine driven borehole s, to the use of geophysical techniques and remote sensing methods, such as aerial photography and satellite imagery . A Geological Survey can also be a national or federal institution employed to maintain the geological inventory and advance the knowledge of geosciences for the benefit of the wealth and health of the nation. In the United States, the 50 state surveys are coordinated by the Association of American State Geologists . Some examples of national geological surveys are listed here Geoscience Australia known from 1992 to 2001 as the Australian Geological Survey Organisation AGSO Geological Survey of Canada Geological Survey of India Saudi Geological Survey British Geological Survey United States Geological Survey Individual states or provinces may also have a geological survey.

Using Hubble s law , the redshift can be used to calculate the distance of an object from Earth. By combining redshift with angular position data, a redshift survey maps the 3D distribution of matter within a field of the sky. These observations are used to measure properties of the Large scale structure of the cosmos large scale structure of the universe. The Great Wall astronomy Great Wall , a vast conglomeration of galaxies over 500 million light years wide, provides a dramatic example of a large scale structure that redshift surveys can detect. The first redshift survey was the CfA Redshift Survey , started in 1977 with the initial data collection completed in 1982. The most notable, recent and low redshift surveys are the 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey , Sloan Digital Sky Survey and the Galaxy And Mass Assembly survey . At high redshift there exist the DEEP2 Redshift Survey and the VIMOS VLT Deep Survey VVDS . Because of the demands on observing time required to obtain spectroscopic redshifts i.e., true redshifts measured by velocity , it has become commonplace to use photometric redshift s, http astrowww.phys.uvic.ca grads gwyn pz index.html based on brightness. Such redshifts can be used in surveys and to find the space distribution of galaxies, provided the galaxy types are well known, but, obviously they cannot be used to define points on the Hubble curve, because of circular reasoning.

Systematic survey or extensive survey is the archaeology archaeological technique of detailed examination of an area for the purpose of recording the location and significance of archaeological resources. It provides a regional perspective by gathering information on settlement patterns over a large area. It is one of the basic fieldwork strategies used by paleoanthropologists and archaeologists . The regional survey answer questions pertaining to the site s location, the size of the settlement, their types of buildings, and the age of the site. Usually the surveyor walks over the area and records the site locations and their size. During this process, the surveyor tries to date the site to see when it was occupied.

Unreferenced date May 2007 In academia , a survey article is a paper that is a work of synthesis, published through the usual channels a learned journal or collective volume, such as conference proceedings or collection of essays . It stands outside the usual run of academic journal research paper s, for two reasons it is not presented as the author s original research, but as a survey or summary of a field and it is not necessarily subject to the same degree of peer review . Sometimes short survey articles appear in the guise of book reviews, where the context of the book is summarised first, often at greater length than is devoted to the book. In a survey article, the treatment of the subject is often less detailed or in depth than would be acceptable in a textbook, and the topic may be one in which recent work requires summary. In its objectivity, a survey article may lie somewhere between a personal essay, and an encyclopedia article. The intention is to give rapid access to material scattered over many papers. Some fields, such as theoretical physics , depend very much on such surveys to bring recent progress into focus, on a time scale of around 18 months to two years.

Stakes are generally made of wood in different sizes. Based on the use of the stake they are called alignment stakes, offset stakes, grade stakes, and slope stakes . Survey stakes are markers surveyors use in surveying projects to prepare job sites, mark out property boundaries, and provide information about claims on natural resources like timber and minerals. They can be made from wood, metal, plastic, and other materials and typically come in a range of sizes and colors for different purposes. Sources can include surveying and construction suppliers, and people can also make or order their own for custom applications. A survey stake is typically small, with a pointed end to make it easy to drive into the earth. It may be color coded or have a space for people to write information on the stake. Surveyors use stakes when assessing sites to mark out boundaries, record data, and convey information to other people. On a job site, for example, survey stakes indicate where it is necessary to backfill with soil to raise the elevation, or to cut soil away to lower it. Stakes can also provide information about slope and grading for people getting a job site ready for construction.This is one resource from http www.wisegeek.com what are survey stakes.htm not original Category Construction terminology engineering stub ... more details
