Lecture:	2 x 2 Hours Yearly
Fieldwork:	1 x 2 Weeks Yearly
Syllabus:	Predominantly a field camp under as realistic as possible conditions, involving teamwork and organisational skills development in order to complete three-dimensional geodetic surveys to national geodetic surveying standards and specifications, and a hypothetical rural subdivision according to Western Australian legislation. The field surveys include but are not limited to: reconnaissance, triangulation, triliteration, traversing, Global Positioning System (GPS), electronic distance measurement (EDM), astronomical observations, spirit levelling, closure checks, and least squares adjustment and analysis. Auxiliary yet important activities include, but are not limited to: equipment calibration, project cost estimation, logistical planning, and professional report presentation to 'clients' in a production type environment.
