(i) made by the candidate using electromagnetic distance measurement, global positioning or other technology; and

(ii) checked by the candidate using an alternative technology; and

(b) a written report on –

(i) the implications of the facts disclosed by the survey; and

(ii) the purpose for which the survey was undertaken; and

(iii) the means of tracing the surveyed distances to the National Standard of Length; and

(iv) the implications of a comparison of the determinations of length of the lines measured using 2 differing technologies

1. The predominant subject matter is to be –
