REMOTE: Geodetic metrology for future accelerators - Geodetic techniques for determining position and orientation with high accuracy

<!--HTML--><p><strong>Abstract</strong></p> <p>A core service of applied geodesy&nbsp;are&nbsp;the determination of&nbsp;coordinates and orientation with respect to chosen reference frames and the derivation of information including quality indicators therefrom. This is required for digitizing the 3d world, for transferring plans and models from the virtual space into the real one, and for reliably quantifying deformations and rigid body motion over time. The lecture will give a brief overview about techniques and solutions. Emphasis will be put on instrumental, environmental&nbsp;and&nbsp;practical&nbsp;accuracy limitations for&nbsp;coordinate&nbsp;measurements using GNSS, total stations and other standard geodetic instruments, as well as&nbsp;on limitations&nbsp;for azimuth and coordinate transfer from above ground to underground infrastructure.</p> <p><strong>Short Bio Andreas Wieser</strong>&nbsp;</p> <p>Andreas Wieser is a professor of&nbsp;Geosensors&nbsp;and Engineering Geodesy at ETH Zurich since 2012. He has over&nbsp;20&nbsp;years of experience in research and teaching from&nbsp;Universities in Austria,&nbsp;Canada&nbsp;and Switzerland. He has been&nbsp;a product manager for GPS-based tolling. His&nbsp;research&nbsp;covers&nbsp;high-precision GNSS, parameter estimation, quality control and calibration, digitization of reality,&nbsp;geodetic monitoring, and the development of novel measurement systems.&nbsp;Since about ten years&nbsp;he&nbsp;focusses&nbsp;on the development of innovative laser-based sensor technology, and point-cloud processing. He is the Chair of the Society for the Calibration of Geodetic&nbsp;Devices, a member of the Swiss, Austrian and German Geodetic Commission, and of the Swiss Federal Surveyor’s Commission.</p>
