This research aimed to analyze double meridian distance for a closed traverse area in developing a land title for a proposed gymnasium in Qassim University. Total station, theodolite, leveling rod and steel tape plays an important role in measuring elevations, bearings, and distances of the boundaries of a lot. A contour map is necessary to determine the traces of level surfaces of successive elevation. This will enable to identify the type of contour map and type of contour lines necessary for this project. Corel draw software is used to draw contour map and guide to interpret the significance of the variables.It is essential to check the error of closure for interior angles and for both latitude and departure before applying the Double Meridian Distance (DMD) method to obtain the total area of the lot. Technical descriptions of the land such as distance, bearing, boundaries, and area are necessary to visualize the shape & the exact location of the land. Developing a land title will be obtained using the technical descriptions of the lot in preparation for the type of gymnasium necessary for Qassim University

Hello everyone, I am facing one issue with the leveling. I did long static GNSS observations (10+ hours) for some points spacing around 10 km. After post-processing and adjusting the network I had the MSL heights using EGM2008, I planned to do…
