Basic usage of AutoCAD and Excel software

The aim of the course is to present the application of modern measuring methods for the transportation and road engineering purposes. Theoretical lectures are accompanied by practical field measurements and processing of the acquired data. The general aim is to show the strengths and limitations of various methods for spatial measurements. Various measuring devices are presented together with data acquisition, processing and comparison. Furthermore, the focus is on practical experience to enable subsequent application and implementation of the geodetic measuring methods, terrestrial laser scanning or photogrammetry in various areas.

The course covers:

1. Examples and practical implementation of measuring methods in road engineering (planning, design, construction, operation, and maintenance)
2. Geodetic principles and tachymetric surveying
3. Laser scanning
4. Close-range and aerial photogrammetry
5. Field measurements and acquisition of data
6. Data processing, cleaning and validation
7. Comparison of obtained results (quality, range, accuracy)
