ENR 215: SURVEYING I

This course is an introduction to the field of surveying. Students will learn what surveying encompasses and what further course of study is required to become licensed as a Professional Land Surveyor. Students will learn how to use modern land surveying equipment such as automatic levels, total station theodolites, and GPS (Global Positioning Systems). Students will learn how the use of field equipment information is integrated into the production of topographic maps. During this entire process, students will be introduced to the standards of map making and the fundamentals of land surveying. There is no prerequisite, but students should have basic knowledge of algebra, geometry and trigonometry functions. This course is cross-listed and may be taken as either ENR 215 or SUR 215.
