Academy of Technical and
Art Applied Studies Belgrade

Engineering Geodesy Course code: INGE | 7 ECTS credits

Basic information
Level of Studies: Undergraduate applied studies
Year of Study: 3
Semester: 5
Requirements: Completing minimum pre-examination requirements from the subjects: Mathematics 1 and 2, Applied Geodesy 1 and 2, Geodetic plans, Measurement uncertainty, Adjustment of calculus, Fundamentals of Engineering Geodesy and Photogrammetry.
Goal: The training of prospective engineers for practical work on the development of geodetic projects, development of construction and other projects in order to provide surveying services to other professions (construction, architecture, engineering, shipbuilding, mining, energy, forestry, agriculture). Analysis of the accuracy of marking out construction structures and other facilities, as well as geometry control of structures and geodetic monitoring of facilities. Preparation of technical documentation.
Outcome: Through training and coaching students handle various situations that arise in providing services to other branches with the previous accuracy calculation of geodetic measurements. Technological development of measurement techniques and methods are followed up and new possibilities of application of geodesy are invented. Particularly, it is insisted on teamwork during projects drafting and other technical documentation.
Contents of the course
Theoretical instruction:
  1. Geodetic networks in engineering,
  2. Design and accuracy calculation of geodetic networks in engineering,
  3. Road tracing,
  4. Development of construction and other projects,
  5. Accuracy calculation of marking out construction structures and other facilities,
  6. Marking out complex structures (bridges, tunnels, etc.),
  7. Construction structures geometry control,
  8. Geodetic monitoring of structures,
  9. Accuracy analysis of completed surveying and marking out construction structures and other facilities,
  10. Hypotheses testing (compatibility, orthogonality, parallelism, etc.)
  11. Standards in engineering,
  12. Geodetic projects,
  13. Legislation,
  14. Development of technical documentation,
  15. Geodetic Supervision,
  16. Calculation of the amounts of completed construction works,
  17. Application of CAD technique in project implementation.
Practical instruction (Problem solving sessions/Lab work/Practical training):
  1. Calculation exercises are performed in the classroom and computer labs, and practical training is carried outin the field and in computer labs. Students are divided into sections (up to 6 members). Each section is given two assignments from engineering fields (roads, subsidence monitoring of facilities, geodetic networks,surveying of the executed state, surveying facades, etc.). Field exercises 40% and exercises in computer labs 30%.
