1 Practical applications of GPS surveying WHO WILL TEACH THE COURSE? Kurt L. Feigl, Ph.D., Associate Professor, Department of Geology and Geophysics CAPSULE STATEMENT OF COURSE CONTENT FOR CATALOGS Global Positioning System surveying for field applications: Signals. Coordinate systems. Datums. Cartographic projections. Satellite orbits. Choosing hardware. Strategies for data collection and analysis. Assessing uncertainty. Geocoding satellite images. Integrating data with Geographic Information Systems. Emerging technologies. PREREQUISITES: Calculus and/or elementary vector matrix algebra (Math 210, 211, 221 or equivalent) or consent of instructor Some experience with field mapping, navigation, or orienteering is desirable. Familiarity with computers and/or high-level programming/scripting languages is desirable. This course will NOT be open to freshmen. LEVEL OF COURSE: ADVANCED CROSSLISTING DEPARTMENTS Civil and Environmental Engineering, Geological Engineering, Nelson Institute for Environmental Studies CREDITS: Number: two (2) 8-week modular class beginning week 9. (2.5 hours of lecture per week) x (8 weeks) = 20 hours of instruction HOW TO REGISTER School/College: COLLEGE OF LETTERS AND SCIENCE Department: (420) GEOLOGY & GEOPHYSICS Course: (376) Topics in Geology Session HIH Lecture 003 Practical Applications of GPS Class Number >81196
2 EXPANDED COURSE DESCRIPTION Positioning by multiple measurements of distance (trilateration). How does GPS work? How well does it work? Field mapping exercise: mapping and plotting a campus trajectory. Fundamental geodesy: ellipsoid, geoid, coordinates, datums, cartographic projections.. Review of Linear Algebra. Choosing a surveying strategy: the tradeoff between cost and accuracy. Receiver position from Code Observations (pseudoranges). Baseline computation and M-files. Coordinate Changes and Satellite Position. Receiver position from pseudoranges by two different methods. Clock offsets. Receiver position from phase observations. Kinematic and Rapid Static surveying. Real Time Kinematic surveying. Student presentations of surveying projects. NEED FOR THIS COURSE Many disciplines studying the Earth, its environment and anthropogenic impact on them involve mapping or sampling object in the field. The Global Positioning System allows anyone equipped with a receiver (costing as little as $100) to estimate their position coordinates (latitude, longitude and elevation) to within 10 meters easily. With a more sophisticated instruments and techniques, accuracies of better than 1 cm are possible. Applications range from scientific (e.g., measuring tectonic plates as they move) to the practical ( how do I get back to where I parked my car). If students are to apply these techniques (or supervise others to do so) in tomorrow s world, they should understand the basic technical underpinnings of GPS. RELATIONSHIP TO OTHER UW-MADISON COURSES The proposed new course is complementary to, but distinct from, the following other courses, as described in the supplementary material: Geography 370, Geography 377 (Introduction to Geographic Information Systems), Geological Engineering 302 (Introduction to Electro-Optical and Microwave Remote Sensing Systems), Geological Engineering 303 (Introduction to Remote Sensing Digital Processing), Geological Engineering 304 (Remote Sensing Visual Image Interpretation). On the other hand, I could not identify any significant overlap with any courses in the undergraduate catalog for In assessing overlap, it is important to distinguish between the two similar acronyms, GPS and GIS. The former stands for Global Positioning System and is the topic of the proposed course. The latter stands for Geographic Information System and is downstream in the flow of information. WILL THIS COURSE MEET A REQUIREMENT FOR THE MAJOR IN YOUR DEPARTMENT OR ANOTHER DEPARTMENT? YES, The proposed course 444 would count towards the 34 credits of course work in Geology and Geophysics required for the major. It would also count toward the requirement of credits of upper-level course work.
3 Syllabus Learning Objectives How will students be evaluated? Schedule Textbook To understand the current abilities, future potential, and limiting factors of GPS surveys To master the criteria for choosing instrumentation hardware and analysis software To view practical examples applications of GPS surveying To apply GPS surveying to a practical example of interest To develop critical thinking skills, particularly in spatial reasoning about quantitative data To develop the ability to work in a team, conceive and strategize a project To make judgments of the tradeoff between accuracy and cost Two problem sets involving data analysis with Matlab. One proposal for a project. Project, described above. No final exam. Eight-week modular course beginning week 9 of Spring Semester, Class will meet Tuesdays and Thursdays from 2:30 PM to 3:45 PM. First meeting is tentatively planned for 2:30 PM Tuesday March 13, Strang, G., and K. Borre (1997), Linear algebra, geodesy, and GPS, xvi, 624 p. pp., Wellesley-Cambridge Press, Wellesley, MA.

5 Description of Project Software Working in teams of two, the students will use GPS receivers to perform a survey of interest to them. They will then present the results of the survey to the class in a short, 15-minute oral presentation, as a team of two. Examples of projects might include: Locations of parking spots for a certain type of vehicle (e.g., bicycle, handicap van, etc) available on campus at the time(s) of the survey(s). Establishing a grid for environmental research on University Lands, e.g. Arboretum Monitoring the trajectory, including estimates of velocity and acceleration for recreational vehicles (e.g., bicycles, rowing shells, sailboats, canoes, skateboards, cross-country skiing, etc.) Locating sampling, measurement, or observation points for geologic, biologic or anthropological research project. Prior to undertaking the project, each student will write, as an individual, a brief proposal of the problem to be addressed and the technical approach for meeting it, including the trade-off between cost and accuracy. Matlab Student Version Mathworks MATLAB 7 Student Version R14 with Service Pack 3 (Student Sales Only) for Mac/Linux/Win CD.
