GNSS TRAINING COURSE

Improve your productivity with our latest software and small class sizes.
GNSS Training Course is designed for individuals who want to learn how to conduct surveys using GNSS on Leica, Trimble or Topcon equipment.
Participants are expected to have a working knowledge of 3D coordinate geometry and construction drawings.

GNSS Training Course Content
Upon completion of this course, attendees will acquire the following skills:
– Understanding of GNSS terminology
– Knowledge of the basic principles of GNSS technology
– Ability to identify situations where GNSS is appropriate and where it is not
– Ability to perform a site calibration to establish a local coordinate system
– Ability to recognise potential sources of error in GNNS
– Familiarity with factors affecting accuracy and ability to monitor accuracy level
– Ability to select the appropriate scale factor and enter data manually into the controller
– Ability to connect the controller with the GNSS rover and navigate through menus and programs
– Ability to navigate through stored information in list format and map view and to view, edit, add, and delete data
– Ability to enter correct settings and select the correct prism constant
– Ability to conduct a topographical survey and systematically record results
– Ability to set out points of known coordinates using the onboard functionality and set out points about a baseline using the onboard functionality
– Ability to set out points along a radius (e.g. road centrelines) with given chainages and offsets using onboard functionality
– Ability to transfer large amounts of data between the controller and the computer
– Ability to extract line data, such as the horizontal distance and level difference between two points, and measure irregular areas and volumes (e.g. stockpiles)
– Ability to import and work with DXF and DTMs and create and export DXFs and DTMs
– Capability to import and export data to and from Excel.
