Sponsored by the Surveying Committee of the Surveying and Geomatics Division of the Utility Engineering and Surveying Institute of ASCE

Surveying and Geomatic Engineering: Principles, Technologies, and Applications, MOP 152, is a comprehensive yet general overview to help support education and inform practicing engineers on the important role of the surveying engineer. It provides a much-needed update on the modern practice of surveying and geomatic engineering.

Topics include

-Geodesy,

-Least squares adjustments,

-Error propagation,

-Coordinate systems and transformations,

-Surveying and remote sensing equipment,

-Identification and establishment of control,

-Construction surveying, and

-Best practices.

MOP 152 can be used as a summary and a reference for practicing engineers, surveying and otherwise, to help provide a solid understanding of the state of the surveying and geomatic engineering field.
