1. INTRODUCTION
1.1 Background
Nepal, officially the Federal Democratic Republic of Nepal is a landlocked sovereign state located in
South Asia. It is situated along the southern slopes of the Himalayan mountain range bordering
People's Republic of China to the North and Republic of India in the remaining three sides. The
country has a rugged terrain and topography of middle and high mountains in the north and fertile flat
terai area suitable for cultivation in the south bordering India. It is primarily an agricultural country
where 66% of population rely on agriculture.
Expanding agricultural productivity is vital to reducing poverty and advancing nourishment security in
Nepal, for which irrigation is an essential entry point. However 43% of the Nepal's net cultivated area
is irrigated, and their productivity remains low due to inefficient system operation. Nepal recognizes
the critical importance of improving the performance of existing irrigation systems and expanding
access to irrigation, with effective integration of agriculture and livelihood support services. In this
context, there is significant scope for enhancing rural livelihoods by improving irrigation access to poor
Marginal and small holders with community-driven minor irrigation. Promote minor/micro irrigation
systems including low-cost drip and sprinkler irrigation to produce high value crops, with development
of various water-harvesting techniques.
1.3 Objectives
The objective of the assignment shall be to carryout detail survey and prepare topographical maps and
DTM of the project for the “irrigation project”.
The Coordinates of base points are Mobile GPS Control points at Gorkha. The points are carries out
through Closed Details Survey. The list of Coordinates and Reduced Level are as follows:
The Topographical Maps (1:1000 scales) of the entire project area provided by Government of Nepal,
Survey Department collected prior to the Survey are as follows:
The detail survey was conducted using advanced total station which measures the angle and distance
precisely. Total station instruments measure angles by means of electro-optical scanning of extremely
precise digital bar-codes etched on rotating glass cylinders or discs within the instrument and
measurement of distance is accomplished with the help Electronic Distance Measurement(EDM)
devices fitted inside the telescope to measure the distance accurately. The following instrument was
used to complete the detail survey of the project:
Control Points were established at the proposed location of structures and along the Irrigation
alignment of the project such as to conduct detail survey of the project. The major control points are
permanent points made by concrete pillars or cross chiseled marks on boulders. The points were
made conspicuous by enamel paint. Reference marks are created and recorded in description cards
for all the major points such that it can be relocated in the field with ease. The control points in the
proposed locations are as follows:
3. DESCRIPTION CARDS
Description card of major control points are provided with all the information (measurement from its
reference mark, XYZ, VDC, Ward, Ward No., Photo) such that it can be relocated in the field with
ease. A copy of description card is provided in Annex – B
6. TOPOGRAPHICAL MAPPING
The topographical map was prepared in Auto CAD using SW DTM software. All the houses, rivers,
roads, tracks etc were drawn and appropriate symbols were used to show trees, poles, transmission
lines etc. The map was prepared with a contour interval of 1 m. DTM (Digital Terrain Model) was also
prepared using SW DTM. The maps are provided in separate volume and are prepared in the scales
given below
