| Syllabus: | Directed study and research. Special topics related to advanced engineering surveying. Special surveying methods and instrumentation of high precision. Applications of laser scanning. Principles, operational aspects and integration with other sensors (for example the global positioning system (GPS) and the inertial guidance system (INS)). Spatial measurements of high-precision coordination methods for industrial setting-out and quality assurance. Instrumentation, calibration, observing procedures and accuracy assessment. Integrated analysis of deformations, methods of measuring deformation of natural and man-made structures and determination of deformations (finite element method with least squares adjustment). Applications of GPS, fast-static, kinematic, real-timekinematic, integration of GPS and terrestrial surveying data, GPS quality assurance. The photogrammetric process (hardware, software, problems and limitations) to industrial, mining and structural engineering. |
