  1. Outline Introduction Historical Surveying Surveying - Science and Profession Methods of height determination Levelling The surveyors’ level Sz. Rózsa: Surveying I. – Lecture 1

  2. Surveying - Science and Profession Surveying vs. Geodesy • in most languages there are no distinctions between the terms • in English (according to Vanicek - Krakiwsky): • Surveying: the practice of positioning • Geodesy: the theoretical foundation of surveying Geodesy is the scientific background of Surveying as a profession. Sz. Rózsa: Surveying I. – Lecture 1

  3. Surveying - Science and Profession Surveying: The art of making measurements of the relative positions of natural and man-made features on the Earth’s surface, and the presentation of this information either graphically or numerically. Geodesy: Geodesy is the discipline that deals with the measurements and representation of the Earth, including its gravity field, in a three-dimensional time varying space. Geodesy focus on the Earth and neglect any man-made features on it (e.g. buildings, public utilities, etc.), while surveying use the results of geodesy for positioning and mapping of these features. Sz. Rózsa: Surveying I. – Lecture 1

  4. Basic principles of Surveying Recall the definition of Surveying: The positioning is usually separated into horizontal (2D) and vertical (1D) positioning. Nowadays 3D positioning can be achieved using satellite techniques, too. The art of making measurements of the relative positions of natural and man-made features on the Earth’s surface, and the presentation of this information either graphically or numerically. How to achieve this? Let’s determine the position (XP, YP) of point P! Absolute vs Relative positioning XP dBP P Control points (known coords; marked on the field) dAP (XB,YB) YP (XA,YA) Sz. Rózsa: Surveying I. – Lecture 1

  5. Basic principles of Surveying Let’s determine the position of a third, unknown point (C). We have two unknowns: XP, YP We need two measurements: b a • two distances • one distance and an angle P • two angles dBP dAP b dAP (XB,YB) a a (XA,YA) Sz. Rózsa: Surveying I. – Lecture 1 Sz. Rózsa: Surveying I. – Lecture 1

  6. Classification of Surveying According to the space involved: Plane Surveying Note: The two radii can supposed to be parallel, when the l(A,B) is small. • relatively small areas • surface of earth can supposed to be flat • measurements plotted represent a horizontal projection of the actual field measurements Sz. Rózsa: Surveying I. – Lecture 1

  7. Classification of Surveying Geodetic Surveying • large areas • surface of the Earth can not supposed to be flat • the curvature of the Earth is taken into account Mostly used for establishing control networks, determining the size and shape of the Earth and determining the gravity field of the Earth. Don’t forget! Size does matter! Sz. Rózsa: Surveying I. – Lecture 1

  8. How to create a countrywide coordinate system? In order to use the relative positioning, a proper number of control points are needed. These points: • are coordinated points; • are marked. Sz. Rózsa: Surveying I. – Lecture 1

  9. Control Networks Why is it necessary to have a common countrywide coordinate system? Many engineering tasks cover a large area (highways, bridges, tunnels, channels, land registry, etc.), where the common coordinate system (reference system) should be available. The Control Network provide us with control points given in the same refence system (coordinate system). Thus measuring the relative positions of unknown points using these control points, the coordinates of the new points can be computed in the same reference system. Sz. Rózsa: Surveying I. – Lecture 1

  10. The role of Surveying in Civil Engineering Practice Surveyors are needed: • to maintain the geometric order during the construction process • to provide fundamental data for the design and planning process • to provide quantity control during the construction process (for example: earthwork quantities) • to monitor the structure after the construction (subsidence, deformations, etc.) What is this? Wrong geometry – the structure is not functional! Laying them in the appropriate geometry, outstanding structures can be created! Sz. Rózsa: Surveying I. – Lecture 1

  11. The role of Surveying in Civil Engineering Practice Surveying activities during the construction process Under construction After construction Before Construction Planning and data collection Setting out on each phase of construction Final (as-built) plan or map on the construction Observations in the field Field checks of construction Presenting documentation to the client Processing the observations (office) Providing data and services to the client Deformation Monitoring/ Load Tests Drawing maps, plans or providing numerical data Presenting documentation to the client Sz.
