During the summer encampment, cadets of the third class receive practical

surveying methods. In this course they apply in the field what has
been taught them in their theoretical course of the preceding spring.
The course includes tie line surveys, made by use of the tape or chain
alone, surveys made with the compass and with the transit, and running
differential level circuits.
