GEO 206E - Computer Aided Map Design

Course Objectives

This course aims students to gain concrete professional skills based on Large Scale Map and Map Information Production Regulation(BÖHHBÜY) by using softwares related to Geomatics Engineering discipline. These professional skills include digital map production from existing field measurements and cartometric exercises on maps (laying out the points whose orthogonal and polar coordinates are given, reading lay-out coordinates o the geometry manually, scale calculation, area calculation, cross-section and profile drawing, slope calculation)

Course Description

This course covers professional applications (laying out the points whose orthogonal and polar coordinates are given, creating a contour plan, cross-section and profile drawing, on-screen digitization, thematic map production by using digital campus map) in terms of large scale map and map information design and drawing based on the standards of Large Scale Map and Map Information Production Regulation (BÖHHBÜY) by using softwares related to Geomatics Engineering discipline.
