Surveying with Geomatics and R

This book explains basic concepts of surveying science and techniques with geomatics using R software 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 also teaches how to explore other possibilities of using geomatics in geocomputation, remote sensing, geography and cartography courses focused on surveying tasks.

Features include:

  • Provides modern surveying practices with free software algorithm and R toolset for active learning
  • Includes case studies from different geographical areas using arbitrary and international cartographic reference systems
  • Enables and demonstrates the integration of traditional geomatics with modern geospatial big data technologies
  • Explains data standards, equipment used, possible analyses and the importance of error evaluation for scientific surveying
  • Discusses different scales of landscapes and brings together the experiences of leading experts in the field

Responsible and Smart Land Management Interventions: An African Context
<p>This book showcases new empirical findings on the conceptualization, design, and evaluation of land management interventions and addresses two crucial aspects: how and under which conditions such interventions are responsible, and how such interventions can be supported by smart technologies. <i>Responsible and Smart Land Management Interventions </i>is for all types of actors in land management. Although primarily based on cases from Africa, it addresses land management issues from practical and theoretical perspectives relevant for land managers worldwide. It brings the discourse up to date and helps all practitioners designing new policies and those looking for new instruments to do so.</p><p>Aimed at land academics, including students, teachers, and researchers, as well as practitioners, including those working within international organizations, donor organizations, NGOs, and land independent consultants, this book </p><ul> <p> </p> <li>Delivers innovative methodologies for land management for professionals involved in land administration projects</li> <p> </p> <li>Explores land management from a geodetic and spatial planning perspective</li> <p> </p> <li>Includes real cases, empirical data, and analysis in contemporary and alternative land management developments in Africa</li> <p> </p> <li>Addresses important land issues which contribute to national development and achieving United Nations' SDGs </li> <p> </p> <li>Discusses contemporary research findings related to societal needs in land administration which are equally valid for non-African contexts</li> <p> </p> <li>Acts as a new teaching resource for land management and land administration courses, and land-related disciplines in geodesy, human geography, development studies, and environmental planning</li> </ul>
