Army Engineering Corps Guidelines for Topographic & Geodetic Surveys Topographic Surveying and Geodetic Control Basics Manual CD Topographic Surveying and Geodetic Control Basics Manual CD This CD presents an opportunity for engineers to examine the finer points in carrying out accurate and meaningful topographic, geodetic and control surveys. Surveying is a basic subject in the training of any civilian engineer regardless of any ultimate specialization. Its application requires skill as well as knowledge of mathematics, physics, drafting and even astronomy. This manual is produced by the Army Engineering Corps with the intention of providing military and civilian engineers with useful guidelines and standards for carrying out accurate topographic, geodetic and control surveys. This complex science deals with determining the relative position on or near the earth’s surface. These points may be needed for construction to locate or lay out roads, airfields and structures of all kinds or for cultural, hydrographic, or terrain features for mapping. In the military, these points may be used as targets reference points for the artillery. The horizontal position of these points is determined from the distances and directions measured in the field. The vertical position is computed from the differences in elevations, which are measured directly or indirectly from an established point of reference or datum. This CD provides an overview of surveying in general with emphasis on those areas affecting the duties of engineers engaged in construction. This CD provides an in-depth study of the fundaments of the science of topographical surveying in an uncomplicated and systematic manner. It covers the subject with enthusiasm, leaving little to the imagination. It makes a thorough investigation of the science of topographic, geodetic and control surveying and presents the same in a delightful manner. Based on manuals prepared painstakingly by the U.S. Army Engineering Corps, the contents of this CD are primarily intended for use by military and civilian engineers involved in surveys and construction, yet they are simple enough to inform and educate anybody with an inclination to learn. Beginning with basics, such as an introduction to the tools of the trade and the most appropriate ways of using them, the study progresses gradually to educating about the standards and techniques employed in actual surveying. Drawings and illustrations go a long way in explaining fundamental concepts and add clarity to the understanding of a complex science. While providing a wonderful in-depth examination of the subject to students and professional in the field of engineering, this CD assures any casual browser of a delightful overview of the complex science of surveying that is rendered easy in this fabulous CD.
