Intended audience: General and practicing surveyors Prerequisite: None Structure: Lecture and demos Objective: To explain and demonstrate the process of going from CAD to GIS. To outline of the advantages and the incentives for surveyors to become involved in GIS. Instructor: Dr. Joshua Greenfeld, Professor, New Jersey Institute of Technology (NJIT) Tuesday • All Day Workshops PRACTICAL SURVEYING WITH GPS Room: Wilson A Tuesday, April 23 Repeated Wednesday, April 24 8:30 am – 3:00 pm PDH Hours: 6.5 FL CEP: 032 84 Course Level: Intermediate Workshop Limit: 30 The class will take a project from initial survey to design and back to the field for stakeout in this day long course. Practical Surveying with GPS will use static and real-time kinematic GPS to accomplish the initial survey. The class participants will do the work under the direction of the instructors. The work will include both boundary and topography. The data collected will then be reduced in the classroom. A design will be made using the collected data so that stakeout can be accomplished. Field calibration to the site will be done prior to stakeout. During the stakeout, horizontal and vertical alignments, templates and roading will be utilized. This hands-on course will teach the participant how GPS can be used to take a project from beginning to end. NO HANDOUTS WILL BE AVAILABLE. Instructors: Alan R. Dragoo Trimble Navigation J. David Newcomer, Trimble Navigation. HYDROGRAPHIC SURVEYING Room: Maryland A Tuesday, April 23 8:30 am – 5:30 pm PDH Hours: 7.5 FL CEP: 032 52 Course Level: Intermediate This workshop is designed to help meet the educational needs of the surveying community and to help prepare individuals for ACSM certification as marine surveyors. The workshop provides a technical overview of all major types of hydrographic surveys that support nautical charting, dredging, coastal engineering, and related marine construction activities. Both NOAA & Corps of Engineers hydrographic surveying procedures and specifications are emphasized, along with service contract requirements imposed by these agencies. The workshop focuses on the latest marine positioning and acoustic depth measurement systems. Who should attend: This workshop will be valuable for land surveyors wishing to obtain a broad overview of hydrographic surveying as conducted by NOAA’s Office of Coast Survey and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. Experienced hydrographers will also benefit from the discussion of wide ranging topics that appear on the ACSM Hydrographer Certification Examination. (Note: This workshop is not dedicated to the preparation for the examination, merely a high level overview of the major topics.) Instructors: Bill Bergen, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (retired) Mareen Kenny, Deputy Chief of the NOAA Coast Survey Development Laboratory Jerry Mills, Hydrographic Surveys Division, NOAA Doug Moore, Chief of the Survey Section in the Philadelphia District, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Tuesday • Half-Day Afternoon Workshops GIS TECHNOLOGY LAB Room: Wilson B Tuesday, April 23 1:30 pm – 5:30 pm PDH Hours: 4 FL CEP: 032 143 Course Level: Introductory See description on page 13 This workshop is also offered on Tuesday morning and Wednesday morning/afternoon. Workshop Limit: 30 THE SURVEYOR’S ROLE IN MULTIPURPOSE GIS Room: Maryland B/C Tuesday, April 23 1:30 pm – 5:30 pm PDH Hours: 4 FL CEP: 032 63 Course Level: Intermediate Multipurpose GISes, involving many different types of users, are becoming increasingly common in local and state governments, utilities, and other organizations. And the surveyor plays a vital role in the development of such systems. This workshops will help surveyors and other GIS participants understand how to develop multipurpose GISes effectively. Participants will gain an understanding of the multipurpose GIS environment and challenges, learn how to develop such systems, learn how the various participants work together, and understand the surveyor’s role in developing these systems. Instructor: Rebecca Somers, Somers-St.Claire, GIS Management Consultants Wednesday • Half-Day Morning Workshops GIS TECHNOLOGY LAB Room: Wilson B Wednesday, April 24 8:30 am – 12:30 pm PDH Hours: 4 FL CEP: 032 143 Course Level: Introductory See description on page 13 This workshop is also offered on Tuesday morning/afternoon and Wednesday afternoon Workshop Limit: 30 GPS-DERIVED HEIGHTS PART 1; “DEVELOPMENT AND DESCRIPTION OF NGS GUIDELINES” Room: Virginia C Wednesday, April 24 8:30 am – 12:30 pm PDH Hours: 4 FL CEP: 032 20 Course Level: Intermediate 15
16 ACSM Workshops (cont.) This half-day workshop provides a comprehensive discussion of NGS’ guidelines for establishing GPS-derived ellipsoid heights and demonstrates the basic procedures for estimating GPS-derived orthometric heights consistent with the North American Vertical datum of 1988 (NAVD 88). The following topics will be discussed: • Heights and Height Systems and Their Relationships • Development of NGS GPS-Derived Ellipsoid Height Guidelines • GPS-Derived Ellipsoid Height Guidelines • Basic Procedures for Estimating GPS-Derived Orthometric Heights Instructor: Curtis Smith, NGS, Oregon State Geodetic Advisor THE RULES OF LAND SURVEYING Room: B North 6 Wednesday, April 24 8:30 am – 12:30 pm PDH Hours: 4 FL CEP: 032 144 Course Level: Introductory The subject of the workshop is the rules of reason (specifically notice), the rules of law senior rights, adverse possession), the rules of construction (relative priority of monuments over calls), and the rules of evidence (admissibility, relevance, conclusiveness). The purpose of the workshop is to provide an understanding of these types of rules, the differences between them, and their varied role in boundary retracement. The intent is to correct a widespread mistaking of some of these rules for others (notably the rules of law and construction for rules of evidence). Instructor: Wilhelm A. Schmidt, MA, PLS Wednesday • All Day Workshops PRACTICAL SURVEYING WITH GPS Room: Wilson A Wednesday, April 24 Also offered on Tuesday, April 23 8:30 am – 4:00 pm PDH Hours: 6.5 FL Course # CEP 032 84 Course Level: Intermediate See description on page 14 Workshop Limit: 30 GEODESY BASICS Room: B North 5 Wednesday, April 24 8:30 am – 5:30 pm PDH Hours: 7.5. FL CEP: 032 21 Course Level: Introductory As surveying relies more and more on GPS and GIS, surveyors need to have a greater understanding of the geodetic sciences. This seminar is for the professional land surveyor or technician and covers subjects ranging from history to datum transformations and the future of the National Spatial Reference System. It is a detailed lecture on the least understood technical part of surveying. Instructors: David R. Doyle, National Geodetic Survey James P. Reilly, Dept. Head, Department of Surveying, College of Engineering, New Mexico State University Wednesday • Half-Day Afternoon Workshops GPS-DERIVED HEIGHTS PART 2: PLANNING AND EVALUATING A GPS VERTICAL SURVEY Room: Virginia C Wednesday, April 24 1:30 pm – 5:30 pm PDH Hours: 4 FL CEP: 032 61 Course Level: Intermediate This half-day workshop is designed to help you understand height systems better and develop the skill of determining accurate heights with GPS. Working in partnership with federal, state, and local agencies, the academia, and private surveyors, the National Geodetic Survey (NGS) developed guidelines for performing GPS surveys that are intended to achieve ellipsoid height network accuracies of 5 cm, and ellipsoid height local accuracies of 2 cm and 5 cm, all at the 95 percent confidence level. The process of developing the guidelines from representative data sets and using feedback from users is outlined in the course. The core of the workshop, however, is an in-depth discussion on procedures for estimating GPS-derived orthometric heights consistent with the North American Vertical Datum of 1988 (NAVD 88). A sample project will be used to demonstrate the steps from planning a project to estimating the final set of GPS-derived orthometric heights consistent with the National Spatial Reference System. The workshop is organized around the following topics: • GPS-derived ellipsoid height guidelines • Baseline processing and analysis of repeat baseline results • Adjustment procedures and analysis of results • Procedures for estimating project GPS-derived orthometric heights Prerequisite: GPS-Derived Heights Part 1: Development and Description of NGS Guidelines" Instructor: Curtis Smith, NGS, Oregon State Geodetic Advisor GIS TECHNOLOGY LAB Room: Wilson B Wednesday, April 24 1:30 pm – 5:30 pm PDH Hours: 4 FL CEP: 032 143 Course Level: Introductory See description on page 13 Workshop Limit: 30 This workshop is also offered on Tuesday morning/afternoon and Wednesday morning.
