Study Guide

Objectives

The students learn the methods, markings and instructions of bench marking, and settlement construction, site measurements in road, land and watersite surveyings.
The student learn about precise levelling, traverse and staking out and trigonometric levelling measuring and calculations. The focus of the course is terrain model surveying and creating a terrain model with 3D-win software as well as measuring its accuracy including volume calculations with computer.
The basic and civil engineering applications of satellite positioning works and instruments.
The common errors of total stations.
Surveying instruments in landwork machine automation applications.

Content

Precise levelling, mapping and staking out surveying with field computer, traverse, terrain models and terrain model surveying, satellite positioning surveying, volume calculation and landwork machine automation surveying applications.
