Course objectives:
|
The aim of the subject is to make students familiar with basic terms of the geodesy and cartography field (point fields, coordinate systems and map works in the territory of CR with special reference to historical development of mapping and its using in searching and documentation of archaeological and monument sites). Great attention is paid to division of basic geodetic documentation methods (constructional side measure, orthogonal and polar method) and learning their principles. The main aim is practical using of constructional side measure method in documentation of standing and torsional architecture.

Requirements on student
|
Learning basic terminology of the field, work in the coordinate system and map scales conversion. Ability to "read" historical and contemporary map works. Working on documentation of a selected object using the method of constructional and side measures including preparation and making of a draft, photo documentation, final sketches and a technical report on the work done in a seminar work. Basic mastering of drawing, export and printing in the CAD application (e.g. ProgeCAD etc.).
