This course covers three main themes: 1) terrestrial-based survey measurements, 2) space-based positioning (Global Positioning System (GPS)) and surveying (Remote Sensing) techniques, and automated mapping with Geographic Information Systems (GIS)  Fundamentals of terrestrial surveying measurements include leveling, distances, and angle measurements to compute Orthometric heights relative to a vertical survey datum and 2-D Cartesian coordinates in a horizontal survey datum for engineering projects. Topics on photogrammetry include photography scale, and coordinate computation of features in imagery.  Basic elements of map design and production methods are introduced.   Basic concepts on space-based positioning include GPS components and measurements and Remote Sensing technologies for surveying. Concepts on measurement corrections and data reductions for 3-D coordinate computations with respect to a global geodetic reference frame to solve surveying problems encountered in construction, earthworks, and environmental engineering. Simple concepts on Geographic Information System (GIS) database design and data integration are introduced for a perspective on a useful tool for rapid geospatial mapping and data queries.  Course Format:  This course is taught as Hybrid (self-paced) learning. Half of the lectures (Dates on course syllabus indicated in red) will be in-class (face-o-face) interaction and the other half of the  2 time is set aside for exploratory learning aided by videos and websites (dates in blue). It is imperative that students attend the face-to-face classes where numerous examples and class exercises will solidify concepts learned.
