Engineering-related SurveyingAerial mapping can be used to map the horizontal and vertical features of large areas of land. A plan and profile is a drawing showing two views of the same features. This type of drawing is typically used to delineate a corridor in which some kind of linear structure, such as a roadway, pipeline, or runway, is going to be constructed. A topographic map ('topo') is a site map showing the topographic features of a site by way of contour lines. Topographic features could include drainage patterns, locations of rock outcroppings, hills and other natural features.
