103-0115-01L Geodetic Measuring Technology and Laserscanning
| Semester | Autumn Semester 2020 |
| Lecturers | A. Wieser, Z. Gojcic |
| Periodicity | yearly recurring course |
| Language of instruction | German |
| Abstract | Advanced topics in geodetic metrology with focus on approaches to 3d modelling of local real world environments with higher accuracy. |
| Learning objective | By the end of this course, the students are able to create digital 3d models of the real world covering areas with an extension up to several 100 m with accuracies in the mm- to cm-level range. They can select the appropriate geodetic instruments or terrestrial laser scanners, plan and carry out the required working steps, test the equipment before use, and describe the quality of the results. They know a broad spectrum of visualization options and can assess their respective suitability for various application cases. |
| Content | - Overview: 3D Modelling from planning of data acquisition to visualization of the results - Modern geodetic instruments - Atmospheric effects - Measurement techniques for high accuracy - Introduction to terrestrial laser scanning - Test and calibration of measurement instruments - Point cloud processing: preprocessing, registration & georeferencing - 3d modelling and visualization of objects, VR/AR/MR |
| Lecture notes | The slides and documents for enhanced study and further reading will be provided online. |
