Geometric Geodesy Lesson 1.1: Intro to Geodesy

Geodesy is the science of measurement , including what?

What are the classifications of satellites?

Refers to the actual force exerted due to gravity between two specific masses.

It has a magnitude and direction, so it’s a vector quantity.

Refers to the phenomenon or field itself — the natural attraction that pulls objects with mass toward each other.

It is a property of nature described by Newton’s law of gravitation and Einstein’s theory of general relativity.

What is the Earth model used in Surveying?

What are the tools used in Geodesy?

What instruments are used in surveying?

What is the accuracy requirement in Geodesy?

What is the accuracy requirement in surveying?

What law allowed for the adoption of the Philippine Reference System of 1992(PRS 92) as the standard Reference System for surveys and mapping?

What does geodesy make simple?

What is a sample application of GEodesy?

What are the major classification of Geodesy?

It encompasses the three-dimension (3D) geometrical
elements of the ellipsoidal model of the Earth and the location of
points relative to a specific model

What does Geometric Geodesy utilize in studying the shape and size of the earth?
