Seems like a track could be laid out from 2 radius points, given the track is symmetrical and concentric. A single total station and consistent prism should do the trick just fine. Perhaps that makes it too simple? Grading would be have to be done to the given specs of the track, however laying out the track, at least in my mind seems to be relatively simple. We did a baseball diamond recently, and they were to fix the diamond if it were not correct. Preliminary measurements from the tip of homeplate revealed the foul poles were not 90?ø by almost 5'. Not sure how it was resolved, but we staked the outfield fence squaring off the poles by holding one requested pole and shifting the other. Assuming a track would be a specified distance in a given area not necessarily setting any particular spot, just relative, layout should be as easy as turning 90 to PC and calcing along the concentric arc. Then again, GE Streetview has caused many a problem job...
