- Reciprocal LevellingSurveying method between two points at great distances, where height measurements are taken at both directions to elliminate possible atmospheric and curvature errors.
- Reciprocal SweepTest/Check for biases in alignment and offsets, involves running reciprocal lines at various speeds and results are compared against prior sweep/swath runs.
- ReclassificationLocal GIS operation to reclassify datasets/cell values into meaningful classes.
- RecognizeTo find and realize the issues and situations consciously.
- Reconstructed Carrier PhaseSee definition on Carrier Phase.
- Record DrawingsRecord of survey and/or field drawings.
- Rectangular CoordinatesSee definition on Cartesian Coordinate.
- Rectangular ProjectionMap Projection with equal spacing of meridians.
- RectificationThe procedure rectificates the image from various error and distortion.
- Reduced BearingSee definition on Quadrantal Bearing.
- Reduced LevelLevels of points calculated through Levelling adjustment, where level of points are reduced (referred) to a datum.
- Redundant ObservationObservations/measurements taken in addition to specified number of measurements in a survey to strengthen the network.
- Reference DataData defining set of values permitted to be used.
- Reference PointPoint with positional data (coordinates) of high order (high degree of accuracy and precision) for use of reference and adjustment of subsequent points in the survey.
- Reflector ConstantConstant given to the difference in the centering of the instrument (geometric center) over a location and the electronic center of the instrument.
- RefractionWave Property. A change in speed of waves when travelling between different mediums (e.g. Air-to-water).
- Refractive ErrorErrors resulting from the lack of focus of light.
- Refractive IndexValue describing the change of light and/or other radiation when travelling from one medium to another.
- Regional AreaArea of land having a definable characteristic but may not be bound by physical or fixed boundaries.
- Regional PlanningPlacement of infrastructure, settlement growth and land-use allocation for a larger regional area.
- RegressionFind a function which is suitable for the provided data.
- Regression DiagnosticA procedures which is available for regression analysis used to seek to assess the validity of a model in any of a number of different methods.
- Regression ModelInterpolation method using a number of independent variables and dependent variables in a regression equation.
- Regular SamplingThe continuous sampling at a given point.
- Rejection of ObservationsWhen results/measurments deviates from the mean by a large amount, it does not belong to the same normal distribution and therefore is reasonable to reject such observations (usual practice if deviation is three time standard deviation).
