Adopting theoretical and practical knowledge in the field of geodetic reference systems and frames and their importance for the state survey and the basic geodetic works at the state level.
Students will:
- Define basic concepts related to the coordinate reference systems and frames,
- Analyze the physical and mathematical characteristics of reference system with respect to the fundamental parameters in respect to which it defines as well as the essential role of the reference frames in positioning, navigation and orientation of objects in space,
- Analyze measurement techniques and classify the differences between spatial, terrestrial and local (instrument fixed) reference frame,
- Analyze the old and the new official coordinate system, reference system and reference frame of Croatia, as well as old and new official height systems of Croatia, and adopt necessary knowledge about the relationship between HTRS96, ETRF89 and ITRFYY reference frames,
- Acquire knowledge and mathematical procedures to solve practical problems of numerical transformation and conversion of coordinates and time coordinate transformation.
