Assigned Department Objectives

Teaching Method

Outline:
Practice, exercises, and lectures will be conducted on topographical surveying, photographic surveying, and theory of errors based on the contents studied in Surveying I, Surveying II, Practice of Surveying, Exercises of Surveying I, and Exercises of Surveying II.
Style:
This course will be conducted by more than one faculty member.
Topographical surveying will be conducted in a practice style.
Photographic surveying will be conducted in a lab style.
Theory of errors will be held in a lecture style.
The overall evaluation will be based on 50% on the submission of assignments, 20% on attitude toward class activities, and 30% on periodic exams. The minimum score for a pass will be 60%.
Notice:
Review in detail the contents studied in Surveying I, Surveying II, Practice of Surveying, Exercises of Surveying I, and Exercises of Surveying II. This course's content will amount to 90 hours of study in total. These hours include the learning time guaranteed in classes and the standard self-study time required for pre-study / review, and completing assignment reports.
Students who miss 1/3 or more of classes will not be eligible for a passing grade.

12th Errors in Surveying
The types and characteristics of errors and the classification of errors are explained with regards to observation errors.
Can explain the types, classifications and properties of errors.
13th Principle of the Least-squares Method
The probability of an error occurring and the meaning of most provable error is discussed and the principle of the least-squares method as well as the arithmetic mean and weighted mean are explained.
Can explain the principle of the least squares method, and calculate with this in consideration.
14th Averaging Method for Independent, Direct Observations
Case examples of independent, direct observations are introduced and the method for solving the most provable error from the observed values and the accuracy of most provable errors for unknown quantities are explained. Further, the conditional equation for conditional observation is discussed and the method of processing conditional directly observed values is explained.
he accuracy of the observed value can be explained, and the probability error, the Middle East error (mean square error), etc., which are the indicators, can be calculated.
15th Error Propagation
The effect that errors have on the unknown value, which is a function of the observed value, when the mean square errors for one survey are known, is explained.
Weight Propagation
The general formula for weight propagation in relation to a mutually unknown weight, which is a function of the independent, directly observed value, is derived and actual survey examples are provided.
The general formula of error propagation and the formula of weight propagation can be explained, and the influence of the error of each observation can be evaluated.
