Course Description		The concepts of physical earth, coordinate systems, projection and map information with surveying and surveying error. Terrestrial and satellite based surveying methods like GNSS and remote sensing and the modern surveying instruments used in those methods. Leveling measurements, profile and cross sections calculations with area and volume calculations. The concept of Geographic Information System and the usage areas. Photogrammetric surveying methods. Deformation Measurements. Information extraction from classic maps and application of those at the field or laboratory.
Course Outcomes		Student, who passed the course satisfactorily can: 1. Explains the processes from the engineering projects to physical earth with the concept of reference systems. 2. Defines the surveying errors and Calculates errors in surveying measurements. 3. Knows the terrestrial and satellite based surveying instruments and explains where to use them. 4.
