  • Evaluation of the Accuracy of the New Primary Precise Geodetic Network in Korea
    Earth Planets Space, 50, 629–634, 1998 Evaluation of the accuracy of the new Primary Precise Geodetic Network in Korea Jae-Hwa Choi Department of Civil Engineering, Sungkyunkwan University, Korea (Received August 25, 1997; Revised April 23, 1998; Accepted May 21, 1998) Accuracy of the Primary Precise Geodetic Network (PPGN) established during the period of 1975–1994 in Korea is investigated through an analysis of residual from free network adjustment. The PPGN, composed of 1155 points with mean side-length of 11 km, was surveyed by EDM trilateration to revise old triangulation network established in 1910 s. A-posteriori standard deviation of unit weight is 3.8 × 10–6 of the observed length. Most of the estimated error ellipses of horizontal coordinates are nearly circular with a radius <5 cm except those in the marginal part of the network. Mean error of the adjusted coordinates was ±4.5 cm, a value good enough for a geodetic control network of current standard, and as the reference for future crustal deformation studies. 1. Introduction To keep consistency with the old coordinates system, the Geodetic control network not only provides a basic PPGN was adjusted in the way that its official coordinates framework for the survey of nation-wide topographic map, are same as the old ones. Unfortunately, original records of cadastral and civil engineering surveys, but also contributes the old survey are lost during the Korean war, and we only to geodynamics. Establishment of nationwide geodetic have a set of coordinates of triangulation points now. Hence, network in the Korean peninsula was carried out in 1910 s.

  • FDM 9-20 Spatial Reference Systems
    Facilities Development Manual Wisconsin Department of Transportation Chapter 9 Surveying and Mapping Section 20 Spatial Reference Systems FDM 9-20-1 General February 28, 2001 The discipline of surveying consists of determining or establishing relative positions of points above, on, or beneath the surface of the earth. In Wisconsin, there are two primary spatial reference systems for defining the location of a point: - The U.S. Public Land Survey System (PLSS). - The National Spatial Reference System (NSRS). The PLSS is based on a system of townships, ranges, and sections (see FDM 9-20-5). The PLSS provides the basis for almost all legal descriptions of land. The NSRS, which includes the former National Geodetic Reference System (NGRS), is a mathematical reference system (see FDM 9-20-10). The NSRS consists of precisely measured networks of geodetic control that support accurate mapping over large areas. To understand the roles of these reference systems, it is important to recognize that the PLSS was designed for land ownership purposes but not for accurate mapping, and the NSRS was designed for geodetic surveying and mapping but not for land ownership documentation. Since accurate property maps are becoming essential with digital-based ownership documents, it is important that there be a substantial link between the two reference systems. Methods are needed to utilize the spatial characteristics of the NSRS when addressing the location of landmarks. Fortunately, recent technological developments such as the Global Positioning System (GPS), electronic total station survey instruments, and computer aided drafting (CAD) now make the task of using the PLSS and NSRS together more efficient, economical, and practical.

As non-geocentric and local systems, they were established based on national astro-geodetic network. Since 1990, several national GPS networks have been established for different applications in China, such as the GPS networks of order-A and order-B established by the State Bureau of Surveying and Mapping in 1997 were mainly used for the geodetic datum. A combined adjustment was carried out to unify the reference frame and the epoch of the control points of these GPS networks, and the national GPS control network 2000(GPS2000) was established afterwards. In order to establish the connection between CGCS2000 and the old coordinate systems and to get denser control points, so that the geo-information products can be transformed into the new system, the combined adjustment between the astro-geodetic network and GPS2000 network were also completed. China Geodetic Coordinate System 2000(CGCS2000) has been adopted as the new national geodetic reference system since July 2008,which will be used to replace the old systems.

  • FDM 9-30 Real Time Kinematic (RTK) Surveys
    Facilities Development Manual Wisconsin Department of Transportation Chapter 9 Surveying and Mapping Section 30 Real Time Kinematic (RTK) Surveys FDM 9-30-1 Introduction March 31, 2017 1.1 Overview This section attempts to provide practical procedures and methods for using Real Time Kinematic (RTK) Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) to obtain consistent results for surveys performed by and for the Wisconsin Department of Transportation. The terms ‘GPS’ (Global Positioning System) and ‘GNSS’ (Global Navigation Satellite System) are often used interchangeably, but each of these terms has its own unique meaning. GNSS is an all-inclusive term used to describe a satellite navigation system from any country or region, while GPS refers specifically to the NAVSTAR satellite navigation system of the United States run by the Department of Defense. The most common GNSS systems are GPS (United States), GLONASS (Russia), Galileo (European Union), BeiDou (China) and QZSS (Japan). In the past, ‘GPS’ was synonymous with any form of satellite based positioning because, for a period of time, the United States GPS system was the only GNSS system available for civilian surveying applications. This section will use the term GNSS rather than GPS. RTK GNSS is a very good general observation tool for determining survey coordinates (horizontal and vertical) of a point. Some types of applications such as pavement matches and bridge decks require a more specific tool (e.g. total station) that RTK GNSS procedures should not be used for. Stated accuracies in this section are achievable by using proper survey techniques described in the following pages which are based on recommendations and information from the following publications: National Geodetic Survey (NGS) Manual “User Guidelines for Single Base Real Time GNSS Positioning” (W.

  • Establishment of Geodetic Controls Network for Monitoring of Jimeta Bridge
    IMPACT: International Journal of Research in Engineering & Technology (IMPACT: IJRET) ISSN(P): 2347-4599; ISSN(E): 2321-8843 Vol. 5, Issue 8, Aug 2017, 41-50 © Impact Journals ESTABLISHMENT OF GEODETIC CONTROLS NETWORK FOR MONITORING OF JIMETA BRIDGE TAKANA ABUBAKAR & UMAR BUBA ALIYU Department of Surveying and Geoinformatics, Modibbo Adama University of Technology Yola, Nigeria ABSTRACT Bridges and flood control structures are subject to external forces that cause deformation of the structure itself, as well as its foundations. This is as a result of deflection in horizontal axis of the structure and/or settlement in vertical direction. Any indication of abnormal behavior, may threaten the safety of the structure. The need for establishing Geodetic Control Network for bridge deformation monitoring was addressed in this research. A Global Positioning System (GPS) receiver with the capabilities of accurate long-term monitoring was used. The designed scheme, therefore, involved the establishment of the geodetic control network within the study area and monuments on the bridge itself, as well as the sets of observations and adjustments using least squares as standard goal data for deformation monitoring. It also includes the observation procedure, analysis method, mathematical and statistical models for initial deformation monitoring on which subsequent deformation monitoring of the bridge will be based. The results of established monitoring network obtained determined the vector of structural deformation of Jimeta Bridge. KEYWORDS: Control Network, Deformation, Global Positioning System, INTRODUCTION In general, bridge and other flood control structures are subject to external forces that cause deformation and permeation of the structure itself as well as its foundations.

  • The Future of Vertical Geodetic Control
    1 The Future of Vertical Geodetic Control G. Steinberg H. Papo Survey of Israel Technion, Israel Institute of Technology Abstract The phenomenal progress made by motorized leveling in the past two decades has not changed the status of vertical geodetic control (VGC) worldwide. Only a few countries have been able to establish and to maintain (re-observe at reasonably short time intervals) their national VGC networks at first order accuracies. The establishment of a national VGC network by precise leveling has been indeed a technical possibility for many years and for some countries it has been even economically affordable. We claim that today those national VGC networks are not indispensable. Due to their many drawbacks such as high cost, slow pace, obstacle-crossing impotence and monumentation problems, we believe that they are going to be replaced in the near future by a more attractive alternative. The alternative we envision is a national VGC network based on GPS measurements which forms an integral part of a 3-D spatial network. The reference surface is the WGS84 (or any future equivalent) ellipsoid and thus the system of heights is ellipsoidal and not orthometric. We believe that the switch from orthometric (OVGC) to ellipsoidal (EVGC) height systems at the national (or at the continental or even at the worldwide) level is imminent and inevitable. OVGC networks may continue to be used in the future but that only in the form of floating islands with a limited geographical extent. Viable candidates for such orthometric islands are regions and projects where the use of orthometric heights remains mandatory.

  • Geodetic Network Design and Strategies Followed for Drilling a 25 Km Tunnel for High Speed Railway in Spain
    Geodetic network design and strategies followed for drilling a 25 km tunnel for high speed railway in Spain Jesus VELASCO, Juan PRIETO, Tomas HERRERO and Jose FABREGA, Spain Key words: TBM, tunnel breakthrough, underground network, surface network, accuracy, gyrotheodolite azimuth SUMMARY During the last years several large high-speed railway tunnels have been built in Spain. To solve these projects, technical and scientific problems have been solved from the geodetic and surveying point of view. These studies have allowed us to set a methodology that optimizes the performance of this kind of works in the world of Civil Engineering. We have applied our studies to the Tunnels of Pajares that are the second longest ones in Spain with a total longitude of about 25 km. The studies summarize the design of the geodetic networks to support the guidance of the TBMs used as well as the election of the observations to be done, the instrumental to be used and the observation and computation procedures to be followed. A special emphasis has been taken into account for the treatment of the uncertainty of the coordinates, displacements and breakthrough obtained during the drilling tasks. The article shows the results obtained and the conclusions that can be followed in order to successfully complete a similar project.
