LAB REPORT-11

Name: Ravi Kumar Roll No. 210832


Batch-3, Group-1

1. Objective:
The goal of this lab is to transform the survey data we gathered using static
GNSS measurements into UTM coordinates and Mean Sea Level heights. This
assists us in making the survey more accurate and regionally standardized.
To obtain more precise height measurements, we are modifying the data to
meet a specific coordinate system (UTM) and taking into account the
average sea level.

2. Introduction:
The widespread availability of Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS)
technology has caused a paradigm shift in the field of geodetic surveying,
providing an elaborate and efficient method for acquiring spatial coordinates
and elevations with high precision. The current laboratory project serves as a
didactic demonstration of the practical application of static GNSS
observations to convert traverse survey data into Universal Transverse
Mercator (UTM) coordinates and Mean Sea Level (MSL) heights. The
ultimate goal is to highlight the transformative impact of GNSS technology,
highlighting its significant influence on precise refinement and the enhanced
value of geospatial data, thereby establishing its crucial position across
varied disciplinary fields.

The subsequent report will detail the techniques, instruments, and


procedural protocols used during the conversion process. Furthermore, it
will investigate the substantive significance underlying the use of UTM
coordinates and MSL heights. The resulting converted dataset not only
enhances the topographical depiction of the surveyed landscape, but it also
enables flawless interoperability with a variety of Geographic Information
Systems (GIS), permitting its incorporation into a larger geospatial milieu.
Beyond its pragmatic implications, this instructional activity adopts a didactic
mantle, giving an instructive platform for surveying, geodesy, and
cartography students and practitioners. It emphasizes the fundamental
principles of GNSS technology, emphasizing its practical applicability within
the current context of surveying approaches.

3. Equipment/Data/Tool Used:
• Tripod
• GNSS

4. Procedure:
a. Our methodology comprises vertically deploying the GNSS
instrument at each of the four chosen control points for fifteen
minutes while using the static method to acquire satellite data.
Following data collection, we process the data, integrating base
station corrections to get the coordinates of the control points in
the Universal Transverse Mercator (UTM) format.

b. We use available data to create a link between the local Traverse


Survey (TS) coordinates (x and y) and the GNSS coordinates (E and
N) inside the UTM/WGS84 framework. This transformation turns
all Traverse Survey coordinates of the surveyed particulars into
WGS84 UTM coordinates in a systematic manner.

Finally, the adjusted Reduced Levels (RLs) and contour lines are graphically
depicted on the plot to visually represent the survey results.

5. Observation:
6. Results:

7. Conclusion:
The WGS84 system UTM coordinates for control locations A, B, C, and D have
been correctly determined. With these coordinates, it is now possible to
transition all points from the local coordinate system to the global
coordinate system. This advancement makes the further creation of the
regional map easier.
