This updated and expanded edition of the book includes four
additional chapters on earthwork on sloping sites; transitional
curves and super elevation; calculations of super elevations on
composite curves; and underground mine surveying. Richly
illustrated with diagrams, equations and tables as well as examples
of every day survey tasks. It also covers new topics, such as the
global navigation satellite system's (Real Time Kinematic-RTK),
which are increasingly used in a wide range of everyday engineering
applications.
This volume gathers the latest advances, innovations, and
applications in the field of geographic information systems and
unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) technologies, as presented by leading
researchers and engineers at the 1st International Conference on
Unmanned Aerial System in Geomatics (UASG), held in Roorkee, India
on April 6-7, 2019. It covers highly diverse topics, including
photogrammetry and remote sensing, surveying, UAV manufacturing,
geospatial data sensing, UAV processing, visualization, and
management, UAV applications and regulations, geo-informatics and
geomatics. The contributions, which were selected by means of a
rigorous international peer-review process, highlight numerous
exciting ideas that will spur novel research directions and foster
multidisciplinary collaboration among different specialists.
This book provides state-of-the-art information on photogrammetry
for cultural heritage, exploring the problems and presenting
solutions that are applicable under real-world conditions and in
various disciplines. Allowing readers to gain a basic understanding
of cultural heritage documentation and practical image-based
modelling techniques, it focuses on the use of photogrammetry to
enhance the documentation of historic buildings in order to reflect
the international trends and meet demands of the preservation
community. Addressing heritage documentation from various
perspectives, the book will appeal students and researchers from
engineering backgrounds as well as from the arts and humanities.
This book reviews and summarizes the development and achievement in
cartography and geographic information engineering in China over
the past 60 years after the founding of the People's Republic of
China. It comprehensively reflects cartography, as a traditional
discipline, has almost the same long history with the world's first
culture and has experienced extraordinary and great changes. The
book consists of nineteen thematic chapters. Each chapter is in
accordance with the unified directory structure, introduction,
development process, major study achievements, problem and
prospect, representative works, as well as a lot of references. It
is useful as a reference both for scientists and technicians who
are engaged in teaching, researching and engineering of cartography
and geographic information engineering.
This volume highlights the latest advances, innovations, and
applications in the field of asphalt pavement technology, as
presented by leading international researchers and engineers at the
5th International Symposium on Asphalt Pavements & Environment
(ISAP 2019 APE Symposium), held in Padua, Italy on September 11-13,
2019. It covers a diverse range of topics concerning materials and
technologies for asphalt pavements, designed for sustainability and
environmental compatibility: sustainable pavement materials,
marginal materials for asphalt pavements, pavement structures,
testing methods and performance, maintenance and management
methods, urban heat island mitigation, energy harvesting, and Life
Cycle Assessment. The contributions, which were selected by means
of a rigorous international peer-review process, present a wealth
of exciting ideas that will open novel research directions and
foster multidisciplinary collaboration among different specialists.
This volume gathers the latest advances, innovations, and
applications in the field of mining, geology and geo-spatial
technologies, as presented by leading researchers and engineers at
the International Conference on Innovations for Sustainable and
Responsible Mining (ISRM), held in Hanoi, Vietnam on October 15-17
2020. The contributions cover a diverse range of topics, including
mining technology, drilling and blasting engineering, tunneling and
geotechnical applications, mineral processing, mine management and
economy, environmental risk assessment and management, mining and
local development, mined land rehabilitation, water management and
hydrogeology, regional Geology and tectonics, spatial engineering
for monitoring natural resources and environment change, GIS and
remote sensing for natural disaster monitoring, risk mapping and
revisualization, natural resources monitoring and management, mine
occupational safety and health. Selected by means of a rigorous
peer-review process, they will spur novel research directions and
foster future multidisciplinary collaborations.
