Course Objectives of the survey camp works are:
1. Apply knowledge of mathematics, science, and engineering to understand the measurement techniques
2. To train the students under difficult and realistic situation of the surveying project.
3. To acquire a sound practical knowledge and application of theory and in practical to overcome the difficulties that could arise in field during surveying.
4. The use of different survey instrument and to develop the team spirit at work
5. To impart training in the use of modern surveying instruments and to acquire a comprehensive idea of the project.
6. To impart confidence in the handling and management of the survey project.

Level 3- Highly Addressed, Level 2-Moderately Addressed, Level 1-Low Addressed.
Method is to relate the level of PO with the number of hours devoted to the COs which address the given PO. If >40% of classroom sessions addressing a particular PO, it is considered that PO is addressed at Level 3
If 25 to 40% of classroom sessions addressing a particular PO, it is considered that PO is addressed at Level 2 If 5 to 25% of classroom sessions addressing a particular PO, it is considered that PO is addressed at Level 1 If < 5% of classroom sessions addressing a particular PO, it is considered that PO is considered not-addressed.

ROADMAP FOR SURVEY CAMP

 Introduction
1. Students must follow the instructions given by the camp director/staff-in-charge.
2. Students must adhere to the dress code for the survey camp (Shoe, uniform, hat/cap).
3. Students must handle the instruments with at most care as instructed.
4. Instruments, accessories must be properly disassembled and handed over to the lab assistant.
5. The readings are to be done by the batch as grouped by the camp director/HOD and report should be submitted by each student.
6. Attendance at camp (briefings, lectures, field work and field tours, etc.) is mandatory.
7. Students should reach camp site on time; late students may not be allowed to participate.
8. The camp record shall include all original field observations, calculations and plots.
9. Instruction classes explaining about camp before commencement of camp being prepared will help you to finish the field work early.
10. Students and coordinator have to stay in the camp arranged by the camp director.
11. You may require to perform calculations after regular camp hours. Anticipate and adapt to any unexpected bad weather etc.
12. All reading must be noted using pen. Pencil should not be used in the field book except drawing sketch or diagram if needed.
13. Unnecessary colouring in the drawing should be avoided. Coloured lines should be as  per code- Proposed line in green existing in red
14. Each batch must preserve the field book/Level book and hand over to the camp director/Staff-in-charge from your batch with the report at the end of semester.
15. Students will be evaluated on your ability to correctly complete the field work, calculations and analysis, as well as your ability to clearly communicate your methodology, results, and ideas to others.
16. All plots and drawings should be original (e.g. created by you, based on your experimental data).
 
17. Students must participate in the camp for all days as scheduled. Camp will not be arranged for the students who miss it.

 Batches Each batch of student should be not more than 10

 Field work schedule
1. The students must come prepared for their sessions to complete the field work as scheduled.
2. Survey Camp of 12 days duration will be held immediately after Vth semester at a Hilly Terrain.
3. The students are required to prepare the Topographical Map (Key plan) of the area by traditional method.
4. The purpose of the camp is to train students in using modern surveying techniques and equipment such as GPS, total stations, automatic levels, electronic theodolites, etc. to prepare a detailed digital map.

 Safety Safety is our prime concern at all times. If your conduct is deemed to compromise safety regulations, you may be asked to leave camp and disciplinary action will be taken. Do not perform unauthorized experiments by yourself. Never leave the survey equipments unattended in the field. There must be no fooling around in the camp site. The students are strictly advised to wear shoes during the entire hours of the camp as a measure of safety

 Code of Conduct for Students
1. Instruments, ranging rods, pegs, arrow, staves etc have to be used only for field work purposes. Inappropriate use of the above such accessories will lead to disciplinary action/penalty.
2. Instruments must not be operated in a rough/violent manner.
3. Fire safety is extremely important.
4. Students causing damage will be required to pay for repairs.
5. No spray paints or other similar marking items are to be used unless as instructed by staff.
6. No personsare allowed to swim in the water. Do not leave bottles and cans in the field or by the lake. Do not litter; pick up any litter you may find
7. Canoes may only be used if equipment (safety devices, paddles, etc.) is signed in/out with a staff member.
8. If sufficiently serious, the breaking of a rule may also result in the person contravening them being evicted from the property Vehicles of students are not allowed within camp
9. Students should not leave the camp for any reason without the permission of coordinator
10. Keep camp neat and tidy. Return borrowed equipment’s to their proper location
11. No one is permitted to cut or otherwise damage any living tree without the express permission of a course instructor.
12. Sleeping must be in the designated dorm arranged by program coordinator. Tents and other alternative sleeping arrangements are not permitted.
13. Any contravention of these rules may result in serious action
