Learning outcomes of the course unit

Student will manage basic theoretical knowledge and practical skills of the creation and update large-scale maps.

Prerequisites

Work with a total station and other geodetic instruments, coordinate calculations and creation of graphic outputs in geodetic programs, and work in multidisciplinary programs using geodetic applications.

Co-requisites

Working with graphics software for creating large-scale maps, using libraries of line and point map symbols, and fundamentals of topological and attribute correctness.

Planned learning activities and teaching methods

Teaching takes place in the form of lectures, practical exercises, and self-study. Attendance at lectures is recommended, at exercises are compulsory.

Assesment methods and criteria linked to learning outcomes

Conditions for successful termination of course are:

  • completion of exercises including mandatory attendance, correct solution of all submitted tasks, passing tests for the specified minimum number of points, and obtaining credit from the course,
  • successfully passing the written and oral parts of the exam (after obtaining the credit).

Course curriculum

  • Introduction, the definition of basic concepts, terminology, maps (graphical, numerical, GIS), national map series, geodetic controls, reference systems, and numbering of geodetic points.
  • Basic forms of terrain relief, ways representation of hypsography in large-scale maps, interpolation, and construction of contour lines.
  • Field sketch - creation, content, terms, symbolics, sketch completing.
  • Methods for detailed mapping. Type tasks.
  • Geodetic instruments for detailed mapping, and application of mathematical and physical corrections of measured quantities.
  • Computational processing of the measured data, methods of solution.
  • Basic and thematic large-scale maps – layout and labeling of map sheets, norms for creation, classification, content, methods of representation of contents. Digital technical maps.
  • Large scale maps – map symbols, accuracy class, testing of the accuracy, graphical processing.
  • Use of GNSS, photogrammetry, mobile mapping, and laser scanning for detailed mapping.
  • Digital models – DTM, DSM, DEM, visualizations, outputs.
  • Recapitulation, consultation.
