To acquire knowledge in GPS technologies, and to get introduced to the fields of their application.

Acquired knowledge is used in further education.

Lecture content: - Concept and characteristics of GNSS - Short fundamentals on satellite geodesy, referential systems related to GNSS, survey and characteristics of observed values, measuring methods and mathematical positioning methods - Performing GNSS measuring and data processing, short overview on geodetic dates and data transformation among them, survey on GNSS application - Basic principles in working with DGNSS - Mathematical models, coordinate systems in function, practical problems - Navigation using GNSS - Methods for determining and techniques for searching ambiguities both for phase data and the combination of code and phase data - GNSS application in: geodesy, geodynamics, tectonic plate movement with time alternating coordinates, navigation, Space - Diverse systems for global positioning: TRANST, DORIS, GLONASS, GPS, GALILEO. Location-based services Practice content: Practical application of presented concepts from lectures.

Up to 70% of points could be provided through the obligatory tasks, during the teaching process and practical part of the exam. Final examination – oral form.
