There are many different types of careers that fall into the category of environmental sciences. Geodesy is one of them. Geodesy is the scientific discipline that deals with the measurement and representation of the Earth, including its gravitational field, in a three-dimensional time-varying space as well as with location of fixed points on the Earth. At one time, all work done in the field of geodesy was based on land surveys. Now, land surveys are done in conjunction with the use of satellites. Surveying or land surveying is the technique of accurately determining the terrestrial or three-dimensional space position of points and the distances and angles between them. These points are usually associated with positions on the surface of the Earth, and are often used to establish land maps and boundaries for ownership or governmental purposes. In order to accomplish their objective, surveyors use elements of geometry, engineering, trigonometry, mathematics, physics, and law. Surveying has been an essential element in the development of the human environment since the beginning of recorded history (ca. 5000 years ago) and it is a requirement in the planning and execution of nearly every form of construction. Its most familiar modern uses are in the fields of transport, building and construction, communications, mapping, and the definition of legal boundaries for land ownership. The basic principles of surveying have changed little over the ages, but the tools used by surveyors have evolved tremendously. As late as the 1990s the basic tools used in planar surveying were a tape measure for determining shorter distances, a level for determining height or elevation differences, and a theodolite, set on a tripod, with which one can measure angles (horizontal and vertical), combined with triangulation. Starting from a position with known location and elevation, the distance and angles to the unknown point are measured. Electronic distance-measuring devices have made field surveys easier and more accurate, while much improved circle graduation has made theodolites (transists) lighter as well as more precise. A more modern instrument is a total station, which is a theodolite with an electronic distance measurement device and can also be used for leveling when set to the horizontal plane. Engineering, especially civil engineering, depends heavily on surveyors. Whenever there are roads, railways, reservoir, dams, bridges or residential areas to be built, surveyors are involved. They establish the boundaries of legal descriptions and the boundaries of various lines of political divisions. They also provide advice and data for geographical information systems (GIS), computer databases that contain data on land features and boundaries. Surveyors must have a thorough knowledge of algebra, basic calculus, geometry, and trigonometry. They must also know the laws that deal with surveys, property, and contracts. In addition, they must be able to use delicate instruments with accuracy and precision. Task 8. Choose the topics discussed in the text. Выберите один или несколько ответов: У а.
