Guidelines for the use of GNSS in land surveying and mapping [electronic resource]
Pearson, Christopher
Guidelines for the use of GNSS in land surveying and mapping [electronic resource] - 3rd ed. - London, RICS, 16 May 2023 - 63p. 30cm. - RICS Professional Standard RICS Professional Standard Global .
This third edition of the Use of GNSS in surveying and mapping has been prepared by RICS in partnership with Newcastle University, and with the help of an extensive expert peer review process. The standard forms part of a series of standards and best practice intended to assist all those connected with the requesting, purchase and production of surveys and mapping data at all scales, by spreading good practice and seeking to avoid duplication of effort.
This document has been written primarily with two goals in mind:
1) to provide the surveyor with a set of practical operational guidelines, which can be used when undertaking any survey that includes GNSS techniques. Sufficient information is also included to allow the surveyor to generate a set of GNSS survey procedures applicable to a survey task required by the client
2) to provide the client, or purchaser of spatial information generated from a GNSS survey, with sufficient information to write a task specific specification for a GNSS survey which sets out the accuracy requirements, products and a scope of work, from which the surveyor can accurately produce a bid for the survey.
The new global 3rd edition features fully revised and updated sections on GNSS survey methods, control and errors, coordinate reference systems and projections, and a strong emphasis on quality control and office/processing procedures.
There are other RICS publications related to the full range of geospatial/land surveying services such as:
Measured Surveys of Land, Buildings and Utilities (3rd Edition) 2014
Earth observation and aerial surveys (6th Edition) 2021 Supersedes second edition (ISBN 9781842196076). In March 2023 a consultation went out for a 3rd edition Finalised 3rd edition published May 2023 Effective 18 June 2023.
