One topic, as StudyPath teaches it.

General surveying and site selection

General surveying and site selection in fish pond construction deal with examining land before building so that the pond will hold water, drain properly, and be economical to manage. For exams, you must master the purpose of surveying, the basic measurements taken on a site, and the physical factors that make a location suitable or unsuitable for pond development.
