No late homework will be accepted.The Honor System and the School of Engineering and Applied ScienceThe School of Engineering and Applied Science relies upon and cherishes its community of trust. We firmly endorse, uphold, and embrace the University’s Honor principle that students will not lie, cheat, or steal, and we expect all students to take responsibility for the System and the privileges that it provides. We recognize that even one Honor infraction can destroy an exemplary reputation that has taken years to build. Acting in a manner consistent with the principles of Honor will benefit every member of the community both while enrolled in the Engineering School and in the future.SCHEDULEDateTopicReading Survey/EconHWField Survey/3D Model / GISAug 27Course Introduction Aug 29Surveying FundamentalsSurv Ch 11 – kmlSept 3Surveying + StationingSurv Ch 1ASept 5Leveling Surv Ch 22 – 2DSept 10Distance MeasurementSurv Ch 3BSept 12Angle MeasurementSurv Ch 43 – 3DSept 17Traverse Surveys Surv Ch 6CSept 19Traverse SurveysSurv Ch 64 – PointsSept 24Contemporary Instruments Surv Ch 5&6DSept 26Test #1 Oct 1Intro to Geographic Info SystemsSurv 95 – SurfaceOct 3Satellite PositioningSurv Ch 7Oct 8Intro Sem.
