The term geological survey can be used to describe both the conduct of a surveying survey for geological purposes and an institution holding geological information. A geological survey is the systematic investigation of the subsurface of a given piece of ground for the purpose of creating a geological map or scientific model model . A geological survey employs techniques from the traditional walk over survey, studying outcrop s and landforms , to intrusive methods, such as hand augering and machine driven borehole s, to the use of geophysical techniques and remote sensing methods, such as aerial photography and satellite imagery . A Geological Survey can also be a national or federal institution employed to maintain the geological inventory and advance the knowledge of geosciences for the benefit of the wealth and health of the nation.

Survey research a research method involving the use of questionnaire s and or statistical survey s to gather data about people and their thoughts and behaviours. This method was pioneered in the 1930s and 1940s by sociologist Paul Lazarsfeld .

One of its early successes was the development of the theory of two step flow of communication . The method was foundational for the inception of the Quantitative research tradition in sociology.

Systematic survey or extensive survey is the archaeology archaeological technique of detailed examination of an area for the purpose of recording the location and significance of archaeological resources. It provides a regional perspective by gathering information on settlement patterns over a large area. It is one of the basic fieldwork strategies used by paleoanthropologists and archaeologists . The regional survey answer questions pertaining to the site s location, the size of the settlement, their types of buildings, and the age of the site. Usually the surveyor walks over the area and records the site locations and their size. During this process, the surveyor tries to date the site to see when it was occupied.

Using Hubble s law , the redshift can be used to calculate the distance of an object from Earth. By combining redshift with angular position data, a redshift survey maps the 3D distribution of matter within a field of the sky. These observations are used to measure properties of the Large scale structure of the cosmos large scale structure of the universe. The Great Wall astronomy Great Wall , a vast conglomeration of galaxies over 500 million light years wide, provides a dramatic example of a large scale structure that redshift surveys can detect. The first redshift survey was the CfA Redshift Survey , started in 1977 with the initial data collection completed in 1982. The most notable, recent and low redshift surveys are the 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey , Sloan Digital Sky Survey and the Galaxy And Mass Assembly survey . At high redshift there exist the DEEP2 Redshift Survey and the VIMOS VLT Deep Survey VVDS . Because of the demands on observing time required to obtain spectroscopic redshifts i.e., true redshifts measured by velocity , it has become commonplace to use photometric redshift s, http astrowww.phys.uvic.ca grads gwyn pz index.html based on brightness. Such redshifts can be used in surveys and to find the space distribution of galaxies, provided the galaxy types are well known, but, obviously they cannot be used to define points on the Hubble curve, because of circular reasoning.

Unreferenced date May 2007 In academia , a survey article is a paper that is a work of synthesis, published through the usual channels a learned journal or collective volume, such as conference proceedings or collection of essays . It stands outside the usual run of academic journal research paper s, for two reasons it is not presented as the author s original research, but as a survey or summary of a field and it is not necessarily subject to the same degree of peer review . Sometimes short survey articles appear in the guise of book reviews, where the context of the book is summarised first, often at greater length than is devoted to the book. In a survey article, the treatment of the subject is often less detailed or in depth than would be acceptable in a textbook, and the topic may be one in which recent work requires summary. In its objectivity, a survey article may lie somewhere between a personal essay, and an encyclopedia article. The intention is to give rapid access to material scattered over many papers. Some fields, such as theoretical physics , depend very much on such surveys to bring recent progress into focus, on a time scale of around 18 months to two years.

It can also refer to the chart or map made by analysing a region from the air. This is typically done using aeroplanes , helicopters , UAV s such as the InView Unmanned Aircraft System and in history with Balloon aircraft balloons . Aerial survey should be distinguished by satellite imagery technologies because of its better resolution, quality and atmospheric conditions. Today, aerial survey is often recognized as a synonym for aerophotogrammetry, part of photogrammetry where the camera is placed in the air. Measurements on aerial images are provided by photogrammetric technologies and methods. Aerial surveys can provide information on many things not visible from the ground.
