The participants went through a hands-on experience in using theodolite, cross staff, levelling  staff, tapes, plane table and total station which they had learned in theory. The survey camp aimed at equipping the participants with necessary set of skills that will enable them to follow effectively field procedures required for mapping/alignment of a survey project.

During this camp, the participants were also required to compile data captured throughout the camp for further interpretation and analysis, and to later prepare drawings and reports based on the same.
