GEODETIC SURVEYING | VGMA01 |
Aim
The aim of the course is to provide in-depth knowledge of concepts and methods in geodetic surveying, and photogrammetry. The course creates an understanding of the interconnections of geodesy, map projections and geodetic surveying.
Knowledge and understanding
For a passing grade the student must
Understand and formulate solutions to different practical problems according to the rules and norms.
Skills and abilities
For a passing grade the student must
Carry out simpler levelling measurements with the help of ordinary least squares
Carry out simpler practical field work.
Contents
Contents
The fundamental principles and definitions of geodesy, map projections, control point surveying, transformations, plane and levelling measurements, theory of errors and tolerances.
