1 Engineering Geodesy II Exercise: Design and preanalysis of networks Geodätische Messtechnik - Prof. Dr. H. Ingensand ETH Zürich 1

2 Goals of the Exercise Becoming acquainted with the pre-analysis tool of the LTOP software Getting experience in error propagation in elongated tunnel- and shafts networks Preparation for bidding at the Swissmetro invitation to tender Geodätische Messtechnik - Prof. Dr. H. Ingensand ETH Zürich 2

3 Software Options for Adjustment / Analysis LTOP swisstopo, official Swiss governmental adjustment software Trinet und Trinet+ (3D-Ausgleichung), by Moritz Wittensöldner & Sebastian Kracher, Fachhochschule Nordwestschweiz CAPLAN + NETZ2X: (Cremer Auswertung und Planerstellung) for adjustment of geodetic networks. Cremer Programmentwicklung GmbH NEPTAN (Technet GmbH) Berlin Matlab: N = A' * A; Q = Inv(N); dx = Q *(A' * L); Geodätische Messtechnik - Prof. Dr. H. Ingensand ETH Zürich 3

4 Documents Instructions : see handout pre-analysis using LTOP (German & English) Documentation of LTOP WIN: EG II Website or at the Swisstopo Website: ftware.parsys downloadlist.7018.downloadfile.tmp/ltopd.pdf LTOP WIN: Editor for the parameter file (.dat) LTOP can also used via the internet: (webservice) (access with gmtuser[1...10] and user_gmt[1...10]) documentation: Geodätische Messtechnik - Prof. Dr. H. Ingensand ETH Zürich 4

5 Introduction Exercise Maximal Line of Sight Maximal line of sight in a tunnel A B R min = 7000 m M minimal clearance to wall is 1 m due to refraction! Geodätische Messtechnik - Prof. Dr. H. Ingensand ETH Zürich 5

6 LTOP required data Requirements for a pre-analysis: approximation values for all network coordinates configuration of the network, observations (Messelemente, A-matrix) a priori assumptions of all observations not necessary: measured values (Messwerte) coordinate file (*.koo): approximate coordinates of all network nodes observation file (*.mes): network configuration; for a pre-analysis no observations are necessary parameter file (*.dat): key parameters for the adjustment, includes a priori accuracy assumptions Geodätische Messtechnik - Prof. Dr. H.

12 Improvement of the network Meeting the requirements of the contracting body (client): standard deviation at breakthrough: < 6 cm improvement of the network configuration Improvement by lessening the a priori accuracies? If so, then justify your assumptions! try out different strategies to meet the requirements Geodätische Messtechnik - Prof. Dr. H. Ingensand ETH Zürich 1

13 Use a gyroscope? tachymetric accuracy for directions: 5 cc gyroscope accuracy: 15 cc At which length of the traverse (Polygonzug) is the use of a gyro justified from the accuracy point of view? 5 mgon n < 1.5 mgon n = number of polygon points With n < 9 every 2-3 km a gyroscope measurement would improve accuracy significantly Further aspects to consider: reliability, costs, time Geodätische Messtechnik - Prof. Dr. H.
