The early chapters review the fundamentals of precision surveying: the types of surveys; survey observations; standards and specifications; and accuracy assessments for angle, distance and position difference measurement systems. The book also covers network design and 3-D coordinating systems before discussing specialized topics such as structural and ground deformation monitoring techniques and analysis, mining surveys, tunneling surveys, and alignment surveys.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003ePrecision Surveying: The Principles and Geomatics Practice:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e
