GEO 292 - Geomatics Project 10

Course Objectives

The aim of this course is to prepare the students in the following subjects and
applications for professional life following a 4 semester fundamental surveying
knowledge and skills: Controlling, adjusting, calibrating and reporting the surveying
instruments and hardware; Design, measurement, and computation of Closed/Linked
Traverse using terrestrial and satellite based detail measurement; Geometric and
trigonometric leveling; Layout using terrestrial and GPS/GNSS Techniques; Detail
measurement and evaluation using terrestrial laser technique; Transformation of
heights that are obtained by geometric and GPS/GNSS leveling techniques by using
geoid models; Profile (from field and digital terrain model), cross-section and surface
leveling; Area and volume calculations; Plotting by using CAD software; Reporting
and presentation of all studies regarding the project.

Course Description

This course provides the application of all fundamental surveying knowledge and skills
that were acquired in past four semesters, as design, measurement, calculation and
analyses based on national and international standards for traversing, leveling,
terrestrial and space based tacheometry as a team work
