Dr. Robert Radovanovic, P.Eng, A.L.S., C.L.S., Dr. Radovanovic is a professional land surveyor and engineer with over 20 years of rewarding experience in conventional surveying operations. His expertise in high-precision surveying applications and satellite-based technologies has made him an industry leader. He has been published over 20 times in referred journals and presented at conference proceedings. Topic The observation that the Global Positioning System (GPS) has had great impacts on land surveying has been made so often that it is become cliché. GPS is now part of the standard survey tool-kit in many areas, nearly completely replacing "conventional" instrumentation. However, land surveyors tend to treat GPS as a "total-station replacement" - another way to derive relative bearings, distances and elevations between points. In fact, developments in Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) have the potential to radically change the meaning of what "land surveying" is. This course begins with an overview of practical issues surrounding the use of GNSS in land surveying. In addition, topics such as redundancy and reliability in RTK surveys are discussed, as are the concepts of datums and high reference systems. Following this, topics of discussion will include the development of wide area, real-time correction services and what the availability of a consistent, large scale reference system means for land surveying. Global scale coordinate references will be examined, as well as other emerging positioning technologies. Registration deadline is June 4, 2012
