 |
Language(s) of instruction :
 |
| French language |

Organisation and examination :
 |
| Teaching in the first semester, review in January |
 |
Course contents :
 |
| This introduction to land surveying present in a broad way all the surveying operations (levelling, traversing, survey, setting out) and the associated instruments (levels, theodolite, total station). |
 |
Learning outcomes of the course :
 |
| - to get a basic knowledge of surveying operations and practical methods
- to get an advanced knowledge of the instruments
- to be able to organise a small surveying work
- to masterise the diverse corrections that can be applyied to observations |
 |
Prerequisites and co-requisites/ Recommended optional programme components :
 |
| The course assumes good knowledge of basic mathematics: geometry, trigonometry, as well as of some elements of general physics: optical and electronic mechanics. |
 |
Planned learning activities and teaching methods :
 |
| In addition to the theoretical course, 4 practical work sessions are organised (problem-based). These will include field work such as a closed levelling, a traverse and a tacheometric site survey. |
 |
Mode of delivery (face-to-face ; distance-learning) :
 |
| Face-to-face |
 |
Recommended or required readings :
 |
| Course notes are available on eCampus.
Numerous recent reference books (mostly in English) are available at the library of earth sciences. |
 |
Assessment methods and criteria :
 |
| Each field work session will be the subject of a written report which is graded. The arithmetical average of these reports will account for 15% in the final assessment. The written examination (problems and computations) is organsied for 35% of the points. The oral examination (theory) is organised for 50% of the points |
