The process of determining the locations of the instrument station by drawing re sectors from the locations of the known stations is called A. radiation B. intersection C. resection D. traversing

The correct answer is C. resection.

Resection is a surveying technique used to determine the location of an instrument station by drawing rays from the locations of known stations. The rays intersect at the location of the instrument station.

Radiation is a surveying technique used to determine the distance from an instrument station to a point by measuring the angle between the line of sight to the point and a known reference line.

Intersection is a surveying technique used to determine the location of a point by measuring the angles between the lines of sight to the point from two known stations.

Traversing is a surveying technique used to determine the location of a series of points by measuring the angles and distances between the points.
