Summary
Learning outcomes of the course unit The course "Engineering Geodesy" applies the knowledge of the basics of Geodesy, Geodesy I, Geodesy II and Theory of Errors and Probability to the measurement and setting of geometric parameters such as angles and lengths in required accuracy. It defines the basic methods of setting - out and the stakeout process for buildings with spatial position and linear and surface structures. Basic skills include analysis of accuracy before, after and during measurement.
Learning Outcomes of the Course Unit
Getting students to use the normal part of geodesy and geodetic methods and special procedures for the purpose of the survey, design, construction or installation and during use of buildings and technological equipment.
