Abstract
Connecting cadastral survey plans to the State control survey is vital to ensure the integrity of the National Geospatial Reference System. The required accuracy of the connection is expressed in terms of survey uncertainty, as described by the Standard for the Australia Survey Control Network Special Publication 1 and is designed to support survey integration. The Special Publication 1 Standards and Guidelines are published by the Intergovernmental Committee on Surveying and Mapping.
The aim of this project was to evaluate the existing requirements and available methodology for connecting to the State control survey. Field and office procedures were determined to facilitate the undertaking of surveys over three separate sites using the available methods. The results of the surveys were processed to a standard acceptable for lodging on a survey plan and compared with the current requirements set by the Department of Natural Resources and Mines. This dissertation includes a discussion of the accuracies and limitations of each method under the prevailing conditions.
After completing the surveys, it was determined that an Auspos solution was the optimal approach for connecting the three sites to the State control survey. Recommendations were made for the use of each available method under different conditions. This project provides cadastral Surveyors with information that will assist them in selecting a connection method for future surveys.
