GEODESY AND GEOMATICS ENGINEERING STYLE MANUAL Lecture Notes No. 54 ABSTRACT Although the 'technological revolution' has pushed the humanities into the background, there still remains a need for people to communicate with each other. Just as a computer language must be correct and precise if the program is to function properly, so must the English language be used as clearly, precisely, and correctly as possible if new ideas, inventions, techniques, methods, and results are to be read and accepted into the universal body of human knowledge. In an endeavour to provide a little help in making undergraduate report and assignment and graduate report, paper, and thesis writing less of an ordeal, this style manual has been compiled with the geomatician specifically in mind. As geodesy and geomatics engineering are not large enough fields to demand their own form and format, those of mathematics, physics, and law, the basic underpinnings of geodesy and geomatics, have been adapted for use here. These lecture notes outline the basic mechanics of a report and provide a detailed breakdown of a typical undergraduate report or laboratory exercise, and graduate report, thesis, or dissertation. The more common pitfalls in punctuation and quotations are examined and examples of correct usage are given. Two areas fraught with confusion are capitalization and abbreviations, and these have been dealt with in some detail. Words and phrases frequently misused are reviewed, and hints to help eliminate the problems are offered. Proposals from the perspective of an undergraduate exercise and as standard business practice are discussed. Finally, and perhaps most importantly, a chapter has been devoted to referencing and footnoting because plagiarism is a sin that must be avoided at all costs. Abstract Page: iii Lecture Notes No. 54 GEODESY AND GEOMATICS ENGfNEERING STYLE MANUAL PREFACE This fifth edition of the departmental style manual is a consequence of a number of requests for updated information. It is also one more attempt to clarify some foggy language and confusing cxan1ples. I would like to thank Chris Adams of Owl and Pen Editing for his comments and suggestions. He found a number of flaws in the manual and provided corrections; caught typos that have slipped through four editions; and has clarified and improved SOlne of the examples. With this edition, a pdf version will be put on our Web site <www.unb.ca/GGE/> for students who wish to use an electronic version rather than a hard copy version.

    UCGE Reports Number 20155 Ionosphere Weighted Global Positioning System Carrier Phase Ambiguity Resolution (URL: http://www.geomatics.ucalgary.ca/links/GradTheses.html) Department of Geomatics Engineering By George Chia Liu December 2001 Calgary, Alberta, Canada THE UNIVERSITY OF CALGARY IONOSPHERE WEIGHTED GLOBAL POSITIONING SYSTEM CARRIER PHASE AMBIGUITY RESOLUTION by GEORGE CHIA LIU A THESIS SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE STUDIES IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF SCIENCE DEPARTMENT OF GEOMATICS ENGINEERING CALGARY, ALBERTA OCTOBER, 2001 c GEORGE CHIA LIU 2001 Abstract Integer Ambiguity constraint is essential in precise GPS positioning. The perfor- mance and reliability of the ambiguity resolution process are being hampered by the current culmination (Y2000) of the eleven-year solar cycle. The traditional approach to mitigate the high ionospheric effect has been either to reduce the inter-station separation or to form ionosphere-free observables. Neither is satisfactory: the first restricts the operating range, and the second no longer possesses the ”integerness” of the ambiguities. A third generalized approach is introduced herein, whereby the zero ionosphere weight constraint, or pseudo-observables, with an appropriate weight is added to the Kalman Filter algorithm. The weight can be tightly fixed yielding the model equivalence of an independent L1/L2 dual-band model. At the other extreme, an infinite floated weight gives the equivalence of an ionosphere-free model, yet perserves the ambiguity integerness. A stochastically tuned, or weighted, model provides a compromise between the two ex- tremes. The reliability of ambiguity estimates relies on many factors, including an accurate functional model, a realistic stochastic model, and a subsequent efficient integer search algorithm.

  • Geomatics Guidance Note 3
    Geomatics Guidance Note 3 Contract area description Revision history Version Date Amendments 5.1 December 2014 Revised to improve clarity. Heading changed to ‘Geomatics’. 4 April 2006 References to EPSG updated. 3 April 2002 Revised to conform to ISO19111 terminology. 2 November 1997 1 November 1995 First issued. 1. Introduction Contract Areas and Licence Block Boundaries have often been inadequately described by both licensing authorities and licence operators. Overlaps of and unlicensed slivers between adjacent licences may then occur. This has caused problems between operators and between licence authorities and operators at both the acquisition and the development phases of projects. This Guidance Note sets out a procedure for describing boundaries which, if followed for new contract areas world-wide, will alleviate the problems. This Guidance Note is intended to be useful to three specific groups: 1. Exploration managers and lawyers in hydrocarbon exploration companies who negotiate for licence acreage but who may have limited geodetic awareness 2. Geomatics professionals in hydrocarbon exploration and development companies, for whom the guidelines may serve as a useful summary of accepted best practice 3. Licensing authorities. The guidance is intended to apply to both onshore and offshore areas. This Guidance Note does not attempt to cover every aspect of licence boundary definition. In the interests of producing a concise document that may be as easily understood by the layman as well as the specialist, definitions which are adequate for most licences have been covered. Complex licence boundaries especially those following river features need specialist advice from both the survey and the legal professions and are beyond the scope of this Guidance Note.

Box 4400, Fredericton, N.B., E3B 5A3, N.B., Canada; [email protected] (M.B.); [email protected] (A.C.) 2 Faculty of Geoengineering, Mining and Geology, Wrocław University of Science and Technology„ul. Na Grobli 15, 50-421Wrocław, Poland * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 18 September 2019; Accepted: 25 October 2019; Published: 3 November 2019 Abstract: Extraction of underground minerals causes subsidence of the ground surface due to gravitational forces. The subsidence rate depends on the type of extracted ore, as well as its shape, thickness, and depth. Additionally, the embedding and overburden rock properties influence the time needed for the deformations to reach the surface. Using the results of geodetic deformation monitoring, which supply the information on pattern and magnitude of surface deformation, the performance of the mine may be evaluated. The monitoring can supply information on the actual rock mass behaviour during the operation and in many cases during the years after the mining operations have ceased. Geodetic methods of deformation monitoring supply information on the absolute and relative displacements (changes in position in a selected coordinate system) from which displacement and strain fields for the monitored object may be derived. Thus, geodetic measurements provide global information on absolute and relative displacements over large areas, either at discrete points or continuous in the space domain. The geodetic methods are affected by errors caused by atmospheric refraction and delay of electromagnetic signal.

The points span both sides of the fault. Three 60 the Salton Sea to the San Francisco Bay area. This fault is caused by the boundary of minute GPS observation sessions were conducted, and the relative positions of the Pacific and North American tectonic plates. The Fault has zones that are locked National Geodetic Survey monuments were precisely determined. Those coordinates and that creep. Surface displacement can be monitored to determine accurate were compared to known monument locations (adjusted to NAD83 in 1992) to locations of survey monuments. quantify the relative motion of the fault zone. The distance and direction of the tectonic motion in this region was calculated. With the collected static data, processed using Trimble Geomatics Office software, the study region was observed to have movement of 1.223 feet (37.277 cm) (averaged) during the 22 years between observation periods. This equates to a movement of 0.0554 feet or 1.69 centimeters per year. Near the DeRose Winery, 8.8 miles south of Hollister, California, four National Field Reconnaissance Geodetic Survey (NGS) monuments (Taylor 5, 6, 7, & 8) were set in 1957. They were originally Purposed to monitor movement in the area, and two points lie on either side of the fault zone. The points have coordinates that were adjusted in 1992.

Many engineering projects require the point heights referring to a physical surface, i.e., geoid, rather than an ellipsoid. When a high-accuracy local geoid model is available in the study area, the physical heights are practically obtained with the transformation of global navigation satellite system (GNSS) ellipsoidal heights of the points. Besides the commonly used geodetic methods, this study introduces a novel approach for the determination and validation of the local geoid surface models using photogrammetry. The numeric tests were carried out in the Bergama region, in the west of Turkey. Using direct georeferenced airborne LiDAR and indirect georeferenced UAV photogrammetry-derived point clouds, DTMs were generated in ellipsoidal and geoidal vertical datums, respectively. After this, the local geoid models were calculated as differences between the generated DTMs. Generated local geoid models in the grid and pointwise formats were tested and compared with the regional gravimetric geoid model (TG03) and a high-resolution global geoid model (EIGEN6C4), respectively.

  • Basic Performance and Future Developments of Beidou Global Navigation Satellite System Yuanxi Yang* , Yue Mao and Bijiao Sun
    Yang et al. Satell Navig (2020) 1:1 https://doi.org/10.1186/s43020-019-0006-0 Satellite Navigation https://satellite-navigation.springeropen.com/ ORIGINAL ARTICLE Open Access Basic performance and future developments of BeiDou global navigation satellite system Yuanxi Yang* , Yue Mao and Bijiao Sun Abstract The core performance elements of global navigation satellite system include availability, continuity, integrity and accuracy, all of which are particularly important for the developing BeiDou global navigation satellite system (BDS- 3). This paper describes the basic performance of BDS-3 and suggests some methods to improve the positioning, navigation and timing (PNT) service. The precision of the BDS-3 post-processing orbit can reach centimeter level, the average satellite clock ofset uncertainty of 18 medium circular orbit satellites is 1.55 ns and the average signal-in- space ranging error is approximately 0.474 m. The future possible improvements for the BeiDou navigation system are also discussed. It is suggested to increase the orbital inclination of the inclined geostationary orbit (IGSO) satellites to improve the PNT service in the Arctic region. The IGSO satellite can perform part of the geostationary orbit (GEO) satellite’s functions to solve the southern occlusion problem of the GEO satellite service in the northern hemisphere (namely the “south wall efect”). The space-borne inertial navigation system could be used to realize continuous orbit determination during satellite maneuver. In addition, high-accuracy space-borne hydrogen clock or cesium clock can be used to maintain the time system in the autonomous navigation mode, and stability of spatial datum. Further- more, the ionospheric delay correction model of BDS-3 for all signals should be unifed to avoid user confusion and improve positioning accuracy.

  • Distance Mapping in Health and Healthcare
    SAS Global Forum 2011 Reporting and Information Visualization Paper 299-2011 Distance Mapping in Health and Health Care: SAS® as a Tool for Health Geomatics Barbara B. Okerson, WellPoint/HMC, Richmond, VA ABSTRACT Geomatics is the science concerned with using mathematical methods with spatial data to learn about the earth's surface. Health geomatics is used to improve the understanding of relationships between people, location, time, and health. Geomaticists assist in discovering and eliminating disease, aid in public health disease prevention and health promotion initiatives, and support healthcare service planning and delivery through defining spatial relationships. Distance mapping is one of many tools in the geomatics toolbox that furthers this understanding. SAS® provides a comprehensive set of graphics tools and procedures as part of the SAS/GRAPH® product that can be used for distance mapping, including the new GEOCODE procedure and the GEODIST function, available with SAS 9.2. This paper combines the graphics available in SAS/GRAPH with other available SAS tools to explore spatial relationships in the health care arena. Examples include maps, grid squares, area charts, and X-Y plots. The analytic graphics in this paper were developed with version 9.1.3 or 9.2 of SAS executing on a Windows XP platform. SAS 9.2 is required for the GEOCODE procedure. The graphics represented in this paper are not platform- specific and can be adapted by both beginning and advanced SAS users. BACKGROUND Health, disease, and health care differ from place to place and from time to time. While undertaking the analysis of the relationships between health and locations, practitioners in the field of health geomatics can be divided into two distinct areas of study: those seeking information about the geography of disease and those involved with the geography of health care systems; the former concerns itself with the health conditions of a place and the latter is concerned with the response to those health conditions in terms of planning, intervention and infrastructure.
