Course Objective

The detailed knowledge about the measurement of coordinates, shape and elevations of earth surface and constructions will be presented within the scope of this course. Practical applications of measurements and the use of measurement devices will be provided to students by field studies. Topographic map surveying practice will be performed as an introduction to transportation engineering.

Planned Learning Activities and Teaching Methods

Visual presentations of the course, presentation slides and lecture notes (lecture notes and presentations will be sent to the students by e-mail before the lesson to read.). The students are divided into working groups, and it will be explained with examples to each group how to do engineering measurements will be done on land given to them at the beginning of the term , it will be wanted to apply the same measurements applications on their land Assignments related to applications, the preparation and delivery of final surveying report.

Assessment Methods

Further Notes About Assessment Methods

In this course, field survey is performed during twelve weeks. Results of the field survey is being delivered as a project for each survey group and delivered project is being evaluated as grade.

Assessment Criteria

LO 1-6: it is evaluated with midterm exams and final questions
LO 2: it is evaluated with assignment
LO 7-8: it is evaluated with land (laboratory) report.

Language of Instruction

Turkish

Course Policies and Rules

Attendance will be considered. If students do not participate surveying applications more than 4 times, they will be counted absent. Students will be divided into different working groups at the beginning of the term and land areas marked on the ground will be given to each group. Groups will have the responsibility of measuring instruments which are used in applications.
