Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

A surveying team needs to establish a new point using trilateration. They have three control points measured at distances of 100m, 150m, and 200m. Calculate the approximate position of the new point based on these distances.

💡 Hint: Visualize this scenario with a drawing—a diagram can help understand how the circles intersect.

Question 2

Explain the role of EDM technology in improving the accuracy of trilateration in a surveying project aimed at urban development.

💡 Hint: Consider the challenges of measuring in crowded cities and how technology can alleviate those issues.
