Abstract

"In taking up the adjustment of survey data on the M.S.M. Campus the first thing to determine [is] the use for said data. The data is used by the Department to determine whether or not the student in his Field Work has pursued correct methods. No attempt is made to require great precision as the student is just learning to use the instruments and time is not allowed in the courses for him to learn other than the rudiments of Surveying" – Part 2, Adjustment Data, Narration of Adjustment Methods, p. 24.
