Course objectives:
|
The task of this course is to gain knowledge and develop skills important for applications of satellite and inertial navigation systems in surveying and geodesy. Participants of the course are informed about historical developments and basic principles of these navigation methods. Main advantages and limitations of these methods, errors sources, their detection and possible elimination, observation and processing methods represent topics discussed within this course. The main task of the course is to educate and train users who are capable of proper applications of satellite and inertial navigation systems in geodesy and surveying, understand their limitations and who can solve problems related to their practical applications.
|
Requirements on student
|
All participants are expected to attend actively the lectures. During the term texts are distributed among participants for self study that is a part of the workload during the term. Participants must collect a specified minimum number of points to pass both mid-term and final written exams.
Fulfilling these requirements, participants are required to pass a final oral exam.

Knowledge - students are expected to possess the following knowledge before the course commences to finish it successfully: |
Prerequisites for this course are as follows: KMA/VP1, KMA/VP2. |
|
Learning outcomes
|
Knowledge - knowledge resulting from the course: |
A successful participant gains the knowledge important for correct understanding and application of satellite and inertial navigation with the emphasize on surveying and geodetic applications. The participant is exposed to basic principles of both navigation systems, error sources, their detection and possible elimination. Participants are able to use standard programs for processing of navigation data, they have a good overview of current instrumentation and can solve common problems related to specific limitations of satellite and inertial navigation. They are also aware of international and national GNSS services and they know how to use these services for economic and precise GNSS surveying. Besides GNSS positioning, participants also acquire basic knowledge about advantages and limitations of inertial navigations systems, their applications in surveying and geodesy and possible integration of GNSS and INS. |
