| Examination: 13-scale |
| Previous course: 67151 og 67152 |
| Participant limitation: Max. 72 |
| Aim: The participants will get a theoretical and practical knowledge of methods and instruments used in technical surveying. The aim is to qualify the student to decide on methods and instruments to obtain a given accuracy in the setting out of construction work or in a survey in connection with mapping or control work. Stress is laid on control, evaluation of quality and visualization of the outcome. |
Contents: The course starts in the 3-week period in June with field work and continues the following autumn semester with lectures, practical training and a term paper.
During the 3-week period, the course includes exercises and smaller projects with GPS and instruments for measuring angles, distances and heights. The practical work includes different methods of surveying: point measurements with GPS, traverse, intersection, resection and levelling. Various systems for the computation of surveying data, measurements in photos and for digital mapping (GIS) are introduced and used for processing individual measurements.
A major part of the autumn module is about theory and practice with GPS. Besides, co-ordinate systems, projections, datum, and network design are presented. The least square adjustment theory of surveying with methods for the evaluation of measuring errors and the quality of co-ordinate determination is given.
Photogrammetry is introduced as a mapping method, and examples are given of surveying and setting out larger engineering projects in Denmark and abroad.
The term paper includes network design and measurement using GPS |
| Remarks: Diploma-students, that have followed 02535 will get 5 points for the autumn part of 02531. |
