Surveying 3 - GMAT2130 | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Description This course will build on GMAT1110, GMAT2120, GMAT2500 and GMAT2700. Some new material such as area and volume calculations, 2D similarity transformations, trigonometric heighting, effects of earth curvature and refraction, observation procedures, precision of computed heights, EDM-height traversing, free stationing and resections will be covered. The concept of satellite surveying using real time kinematic GPS surveying techniques will be introduced. A 4-day survey camp in week 10 encompassing both field work and data processing will exercise all the surveying techniques covered in the program. A full day OHS training day in cooperation with the Association of Consulting Surveyors, NSW, will be offered to all enrolled students. At the conclusion of this course, students will have applied their collective knowledge of various surveying instruments and techniques to specific “real world problems”. This gives the student and opportunity to experience the field to finish of a survey task as well as self-assessment of the outcome in terms of quality and suitability.
