Introduction - Background - Definitions. Earth - Structure and basic movements. Shape and size of the earth. Reference surfaces, Geoid, ellipsoid of revolution - sphere - plane. Basic definitions - units. Measurements (of lengths, angles, height differences). Methods of surveying. Mean value - variability of measured quantities. Weighted and unweighted observations. Fundamental Geodetic problems. Geodetic calculations in the plane - basic problems - area - transformations - coordinate systems in the plane. Sphere geometry & arc calculations.
