"This book explains basic concepts of surveying science and techniques with geomatics using R and R packages. It engages students in learning about surveying through real field examples and using differing degrees of complexity while exploring surveying problems based on field observations and advanced geospatial technology. It includes a wide range of case studies as hands-on and self-paced tutorials along with detailed computer programming routines that are linked to the theories and applications explained in each chapter. This innovative textbook teaches also how to explore other possibilities of using geomatics in geocomputation, remote sensing, geography, and cartography courses focused on surveying tasks"-- Provided by publisher.
