Hi CEE undergrads,
I am offering the Advanced Surveying course again this spring (CEE498A/CEWA599B/CEW599E).
This course will cover several modern surveying techniques that can be used for a range of engineering and scientific applications. We will focus on high-resolution digital topographic mapping and 3D model generation using the following approaches: global navigation satellite systems (GNSS/GPS), close-range Structure from Motion (SfM) with consumer cameras, SfM with small unmanned aerial systems (sUAS AKA drones), and terrestrial laser scanning (TLS AKA ground-based lidar).
The detailed syllabus is here: https://drive.google.com/open?id=1YZRd6Lm_55ifhLs4GWryK41jetzRzhxjB65Yv5LBi1A
If you are potentially interested in taking the course, please fill out the following registration survey: https://tinyurl.com/y84s2dbv. I will review responses and distribute add codes before/during spring registration.
Due to limited equipment and computing resources, I am capping the enrollment at 25 and requiring add codes. I am hoping to have a good mix of undergrads, professional MS students, and research-track PhD students in the course, with final breakdown TBD.
Feel free to contact me if you have questions or would like to discuss further. Thanks.
-David
