Uses of Prismatic Compass in Surveying by AA034 Shruti Dugar is a document available to read on EtoBox.
A prismatic compass is a surveying instrument used to determine bearings and included angles between surveying lines. It consists of a prism that allows for more accurate observations. Surveyors use the compass to measure bearings along traverse lines with respect to magnetic north and can calculate included angles using formulas for clockwise and anti-clockwise traverses.
