      The lateral measurements are taken from one side of the chain line running in a suitable direction. By providing offsets we can locate the objects lying in the vicinity to the main survey line .

      Offsets are classified according to the direction and length.

      According to the direction

        1. Perpendicular offsets (angle of the offsets 90°)
        2. Oblique offsets(angle of the offsets is not equal to the 90°)

      According to the length

        1. Short offsets
        2. Long offsets
