Contact usThe instructor will give a presentation on how surveying works in the Netherlands. Everything is measured in the RD coordinate system. You will learn how to take measurements and how to process them in AutoCAD.
Today, you’ll go outside in small groups to take your first measurements using a GPS receiver. You’ll measure points, lines, and areas and assign specific codes to the measurements. This allows you to quickly process the data into a map.
The instructor will explain how to use a spirit level. In the afternoon, you’ll go outside to perform a number of spirit level measurements and then process the data indoors. Is a large part of the Netherlands really below sea level? How is that measured? What is the lowest point? You’ll learn all of this during this day.
Do you have questions about the course content? Or are you unsure whether the course aligns with your learning goals or preferences? Would you prefer an in-house or private course? We’d be happy to help.
You will learn about surveying, GPS measurements, and the collection of geoinformation, both in theory and in practice.
