The prismoid is a solid which has end faces along parallel planes.
The end faces may be of different polygons. The longitudinal faces
are planes extending between the end planes

In this method, the plan table is set up
at only one station and the points tobe located are located by drawing
rays in the corresponding directions
and measuring the distance between
the stations and the instrument
station. This method is used when the
area to be surveyed is small and can
be commanded from a single station.

This method is used
when the points to
be located are at
larger distances. In
this method, points
are fixed by theintersection of rays
drawn from two
different instrument
stations. The line
joining the
instrument stations
is called base line.
This method is
suitable for locating:

Step 1
Set up the plane table at A. Locate the corresponding point a on the
sheet which represents ground station A with the help of a plumbing fork
and level the plane table.
Step 2

Step 2
Centering the alidade at a, sight the station B and draw rays along thefiducial edge of the alidade. Accurately measure the distance between A
and B and mark the corresponding point b along the previously drawn
ray in the sheet to some convenient scale.
Step 3
Centering the alidade at a, sight the station B and draw rays along thefiducial edge of the alidade. Accurately measure the distance between A
and B and mark the corresponding point b along the previously drawn
ray in the sheet to some convenient scale.
