Course Overview
The Electronic Field Book Processor (EFBP) is
utilized for conversion of field survey observations, normally collected
with FDOT's Electronic Field Book (EFB), into coordinates. EFBP
generates a series of reports which must be interpreted by the surveyor in
judging the quality of the numerical information. This seminar will
cover the basics of use of EFBP, and then go through several examples of
processing, in a very question and answer oriented fashion. This
seminar does not assume prior use of EFBP but assumes knowledge of survey
techniques and simple survey coordinate generation. |

| Event Dates: | June 16th, Webinar, interactive instructor led statewide.

Course Overview
Photogrammetry can be an extremely efficient method for
collection of topographic information for
surveying/engineering projects. In recent times the
use of digital (raster) imagery corrected for systematic
error has served as an alternative to photogrammetric line
and symbol (vector) CAD products. Likewise a reviewer
of photogrammetric deliverables needs to have an
understanding of how time and cost estimates are derived - a
FDOT spreadsheet will be used to illustrate. Finally,
new technologies such as soft copy photogrammetry, airborne
GPS, inertial measuring units, and digital cameras will be
presented with typical applications. Existing projects
will be shown via computer projection to illustrate
concepts. The entire seminar is intended to be very
interactive oriented to get your questions answered. As a
part of this training FDOT Image Services Staff will provide
a step by step “walk through” of the FDOT Surveying and
Mapping Aerial Photo Lookup System (APLUS). The APLUS system
allows the end user the ability to retrieve, view and
order current and historic aerial products from the FDOT
aerial image archives.
