AH1816 Geodetic Surveying II
KTH Royal Institute of Technology
For admitted students to the Master of Science in Civil Engineering and Urban Management (CSAMH) there are no additional requirements.
For other students:
SF1624 Algebra and Geometry or at least 6 ECTS in Linear Algebra
Instruments and methods for different types of positioning.
Control networks: the structure of local reference systems in different dimensions. Setting out: planning, coordinate computations, measure and computation methods and report writing.
Positioning, detail measurements: measurement and computation methods and further handling in a CAD-software. Quality in the measured data and in the final results.
The exercises and laboratory work includes e.g. two larger projects, one for a setting out project and one for a positioning project. The aim of these projects is that the student will work with and understand the whole process chain in such types of projects.
After the course the student should be able to:
- understand the principles for how geodetic instruments are functioning and how they are used
- understand how local and regional geodetic reference and height systems are built up
- measure and compute simple densifications of geodetic networks
- plan and perform the different main parts in a setting out project
- plan and perform the different main parts in a detail surveying project
- evaluate the quality in different types of observed data and in the result
