New ASCE Manual on Surveying and Geomatics Engineering Available

NGS sponsored the recently published Manual of Practice No.152 from the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE), Surveying and Geomatics Engineering: Principles, Technologies, and Applications. This manual provides a comprehensive overview on the modern practice of surveying engineering.

The manual includes chapters on:

• Fundamentals of geodesy
• Coordinate systems and transformations
• Geographic and building information systems
• Least squares adjustments and error propagation
• Modern surveying and remote sensing technology
• Establishment of survey control and other best practices

Also included are numerous references that can serve as a helpful resource for finding details on the field of surveying engineering.
