Geodetic datum (including coordinate datum, top datum, intensity datum, gravimetry datum) and geodetic structures (including geodetic coordinate procedure, airplane coordinate approach, top approach, gravimetry approach) are the typical foundations for each element of geomatics. This direction booklet makes a speciality of geodetic datum and geodetic structures, and describes the fundamental theories, concepts, tools of geodesy. the most subject matters comprise: many of the concepts of geodetic facts acquisition, geodetic datum and geodetic keep watch over networks, geoid and top structures, reference ellipsoid and geodetic coordinate structures, Gaussian projection and Gaussian plan coordinates and the institution of geodetic coordinate structures. The framework of this booklet relies on a number of many years of lecture famous and the contents are constructed systematically for a whole creation to the geodetic foundations of geomatics.
