2. Objectives and learning outcomes
2.1 Objectives
In the frame of the course, students learn the mathematical, physical and algorithmic basis of applying different sensors in the field of geodesy, land surveying, geoinformatics and navigation. Students take measurements using a wide variety of sensors and develop the programs to evaluate the measurement results in teamwork.
2.2 Learning outcomes
Upon successful completion of this subject, the student:
A. Knowledge
  1. has an overview of sensors used in geodesy, land surveying, geoinformatics and navigation
  2. understands the basics of algorithms applied for sensor fusion in the previous fields
  3. knows the different communication channels, protocols to communicate sensors
B. Skills
  1. uses and adjusts existing matlab or python codes to evalute the measurements of sensors in geodesy, land surveying, geoinformatics and navigation.
  2. is able to make cable or cordless connection to sensor and test the connection
C. Attitudes
  1. is open to sharing the developed algorithms in GitHub repositories.
  2. prepares enough comments in the code and commit messages for making the developments understandable for research fellows.
D. Autonomy and Responsibility
  1. In some situations - as part of a team - collaborates with other students in solving tasks.
2.3 Methods
Lectures, individual projects with consultation. Presentation of an individual project.
