Learning specifications for land surveying with a home study package
Van Vooren, Jennifer et al.
While building up the Large Scale Database of Flanders (GRB) new surveying specifications are introduced. These specifications are very strict: on one hand the different object categories are very clearly defined and on the other hand the way of selecting points for modelling objects has to be followed rigorously in order to allow good quality-control. Itts difficult to learn all those specifications, certainly for students that arennt measuring on a daily base and only have got a little time to get the basics of it. The Flemish government (AGIV) has good reference manuals and some illustrated examples, but they are only available as a lot of documents and downloadable files. In the outcomes of a research project about updating of the GRB, researchers from KaHo Sint-Lieven University of applied science, department of surveying, developed an e-learning website to introduce students and surveyors to these GRB-specifications. The e-learning tool is constructed as a website with a clear structure, with a lot of images, with short but essential text frames and with some quizzes that allow the students to test their knowledge.
