The Geodetic Work Plan shall be composed of __ and __.

• A. Project Management, Technical Plans
• B. Project Directory, Survey Plans
• C. Survey Management, Survey Operations
• D. Technical Operations, Survey Plans

Answer: (A)

The Geodetic Work Plan is built on two key pillars: Project Management and Technical Plans. Project Management covers how the work is organized and controlled—scheduling, resource allocation, supervision, budgeting, and coordination with stakeholders to ensure the project stays on track and complies with standards. Technical Plans detail the approach to the surveying work itself—the methods, standards, instrumentation, data collection procedures, data formats, quality control, and expected deliverables. Together, they ensure both the execution and the technical execution are clearly defined and aligned.

Other options mix elements that aren’t the standard paired components of the Geodetic Work Plan. A project directory or survey plans by themselves don’t capture the full management side, while terms like survey operations or technical operations describe activities rather than the structured plan’s two essential facets.
