Klein, Karl-Hans and Otto Heunecke
In contrast to Ordnance and Cadastral Surveys (Sovereign Surveys), organised by survey laws and administrative regulations, Engineering Surveys are of private law nature in Germany. To give a unified and commonly accepted framework within Geodesy and Engineering Surveys in particular, appropriate national standards were respectively will be worked out. These standards are open to everybody for application and shall establish accepted technical rules, as well. The paper describes the intentions and essential contents of the standards related to Geodesy and Engineering Surveys supervised by the commission Geodesyy at the German Institute for Standardization (DIN).
