Question

Which of the following is not considered as an error due to natural causes in tachometric surveying?

A.

Bad visibility

B.

Unequal refraction

C.

Unequal expansion

D.

Inaccurate levelling of instruments

Correct option is D


In tachometric surveying, errors due to natural causes typically include:
Bad visibility: This can affect the accuracy of readings due to obstructions or poor weather conditions.
Unequal refraction: Variations in atmospheric refraction can cause errors in distance measurements.
Unequal expansion: Temperature changes can affect the expansion of materials and affect measurements.
Inaccurate levelling of instruments, however, is an error related to the handling and setup of the equipment, rather than a natural cause. It falls under operational errors or instrument errors, not natural causes.
Therefore, the correct answer is (d) Inaccurate levelling of instruments.
