The data should be collected In such a manner so as to render its
easy analysis and interpretation. These requirements call for a careful designing of the survey with regard to the information to be collected, method of collection and
the manner of assembling and analysing the collected data...  


Scope of Planning Surveys

Preparation of Base Map

In the absence of an accurate base map, no planning exercise can be undertaken. The base map should show all the streets, lanes and open spaces and division of area by plots with survey numbers. The base map should show all physical features including contours. In most of the urban areas, this map may not be available readily and where available, it may be outdated.
