Mine Surveying Laboratory
The domain of engineering which involves the collection of field data and subsequently preparation of plan/map of the area is termed as ‘Surveying’. Surveying is defined as the art and science of making measurements of the earth specifically the surface of the earth.
Mine Surveying is a practical subject and therefore the Mine Surveying Laboratory is developed keeping in mind the skill set required to the current students which include taking measurements on and under the surface of the earth in a horizontal and vertical plane, showing the results in the form of a map, plan, or 3D computer model after certain calculations have been done.
The laboratory is well equippmed with latest survey instruments like Digital theodolites, Total Station, Auto Levels, Digital Planimeter etc.
