Discussion of “Solving Circular Curve Using Newton‐Raphson's Method” by Chun‐Sung Chen and Lih‐Shinn Hwang (February, 1992, Vol. 118, No. 1)
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1993) -
Phototriangulation Using CCD Camera in Close‐Range Environment
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1993)The steady decrease in cost of a digital camera and frame grabber, together with higher resolution will result in more photogrammetric applications using such a camera. This is because of the advantages of speed and ... -
Erratum:

Second‐Order Design: Shooting for Maximum Reliability
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1993)In general, the purpose of geodetic network optimization is to solve for both a network configuration, i.e., the point location, and an observational plan, i.e., the types of observations together with the precisions of ... -

Application of GPS Positioning to Management of Mobile Operation
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1993)NavTrax is a dispatch‐type automatic vehicle location and navigation (AVLN) system targeted for the specialized fleet‐management market. Discussed in the paper are its positioning, communications, digital mapping, and host ... -
Smooth Boundary Approximation for Directly Computing Irregular Area
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1993)Existing surveying methods of computing the area of an irregular region approximate the boundary between offsets by linear or nonlinear polynomials. Most of these methods have the advantage of providing a formula for ... -

LGG System for Emergency Response Applications
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1992)In an emergency situation, time is of the essence because a few seconds can make a significant difference in the outcome of a rescue effort. It is, therefore, important to provide rescue personnel the best available amenity ... -
Attitude Determination with Ashtech 3‐D Direction Finding System
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1993)The Ashtech 3‐dimensional Direction Finding system (3DF) utilizes carrier phase measurements from the Global Positioning System (GPS) to provide real‐time attitude information along with highly accurate position and velocity. ... -

Ecuador's Rural Cadasters and Land Titling Project (CATIR): Technical Process
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1992)The National Program for Rural Cadasters and Titling (CATIR) is currently undergoing the development of a legal cadastral system for the rural areas in Ecuador. The first phase of the program, which essentially entails the ... -
Orthometric Heights from Global Positioning System
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1992)It is generally accepted that observations from both Global Positioning System (GPS) surveys and geodetic leveling are capable of producing high‐precision results in terms of ellipsoidal and orthometric height differences, ... -
GPS/Positioned Digital Video for Airborne GIS Data Acquisition
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1992)The surveying and mapping industry has experienced significant advances in the last decade due to the application of rapidly evolving modern technology. One of the most important advances has been the deployment of the ... -
Laptop Automated Navigation Aid Positioning System with Differential GPS
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1992)The advent of the Global Positioning System (GPS) brought about changes in positioning and surveying that are only now being fully exploited. When GPS is in place, positioning accuracy of 100 m or less will be available ... -
Using GPS Results in True 3‐D Coordinate System
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1993)GPS computations are performed in the geocentric coordinate system and transformed to geographic (latitude/longitude) or state plane coordinates for extended use in data‐base applications or engineering projects. State ... -
