Aim(s) of Course |
: |
The aim of this course is to provide students with the basics of surveying which means the science and art of making all essential measurements in space to determine the relative positions and points and/or physical and cultural details above, on, or beneath the earth´s surface and to depict them in usable form, or to establish the position of points and/or details |
|
