Learning Target
Statistics and Adjustment
The students should understand the application of statistical approaches on geo data. They are able to determine confidence intervals and to test parameters regarding significance. Furthermore they can do data snooping and testing of stochastic and mathematical model. The students have the ability to apply the LSM onto all over-determined problems of geomatics. Reference Systems and Positioning
The students get a profound knowledge about the different kind of classical, and the modern global and dynamic terrestrial reference frame (ITRF/ECEF), the link to the inertial reference frame (ECIF) and the respective system description, where GNSS-based positioning is an example related to both systems. Further the representation of the earth’s gravity field and the gravity reference system (GRS80) are treated, so that the students understand the realization of modern height reference frames and the principle of GNSS-heighting. All above topics are important both for modern GNSS and modern terrestrial geo-referencing in the ITRF, and for the transition to and in between any other frame. The treated coordinate systems related to the ellipsoid, the mapping and inverse mapping of geographical coordinates, and geodetic major tasks enable the students to solve basic tasks in terrestrial and in GNSS-based positioning and georeferencing, in navigation tasks, and again in problems related to the transition between different frames. The chapter GNSS-based positioning enables the students to classify, to apply and to specialize, in professional life and in further lectures, the use of different receiver technologies, related signal types, GNSS correction data, as well as different kind of GNSS-processing strategies and algortihms for an absolute and a differential GNSS positioning in different accuracy levels (10 m to 1 mm). Exercises with related geodetic software and GNSS-receivers complete the stuff with respect to practical applications and further studies.

Learning Target
Construction of Spatial Models and Topology
The students should get knowledge about the available data sources for location based services, the requirements on the data and the general methods to prepare data for lbs applications, the hard- and software requirements and user interfaces. They are competend in evaluating geo data referring to their usability for location based services. Visualisation and Application of Location Based Services
The students should get an overview about the visualisation of spatial data with cartographic methods, which are necessary to introduce location based services for a wide range of applications and to get a high acceptance from the users. On the basis of application examples the students develop a location based service for a special subject in the field of in-car-navigation or tourist information for a given mobile device. They have to plan and to run a location based services-project in a team. Students increase their competence in the field of location based services and they improve their ability to work in a project group.

Learning Target
Satellite Geodesy
After a short revision of the basics of satellite geodesy the student gets a deep insight and es-sential extension concerning the mathematical and physical foundations, algorithms and concepts in the essential fields of satellite geodesy. As concerns GNSS-based positioning (geometrical sa-tellite geodesy), the topics of reference frames, GNSS data-acquisition, algorithms and dat-processing, software and RTCM-corrections are treated with respect to the state of the art and upcoming redesign of GNSS-positioning infrastructure and algorithms due to the modernisation of existing GNSS (third frequency, increase of signal strength, SSR) and the new systems GALILEO and COMPASS). Another focus is set on the foundation and methods of satellite-based gravity field determination (dynamical satellite geodesy). Further VLBI, satellite altimetrie and respective data-processing models are treated. The student will be able to work in the full spectrum of satellite geodesy as consulting expert, in industrial and technological developments, redesign of GNSS infrastructure, algorithms and systems, as well as in research institutions. Geodetic Monitoring
The students learn about the present profile, the hard- , software- and communications-design and intensively the mathematical models of scaleable multi-sensor geodetic monitoring systems. The application domains are geodynamics, geology and geotechnics, monitoring of constructions and buildings, distaster prevention and early warning. The full spectrum of mathematical models for different estimation concepts in deformation networks, observation and coordinate related adjust-ment approaches, as well as quality control and statistically based concepts for forecasting and alert setting in realtime (e.g. displacement estimation, Kalmanfilter) are treated. The lectures are accomplished by exercises with the systems GOCA and MONIKA in real-data environment. The student will be able to work in the full spectrum of satellite geodesy as consulting expert, in in-dustrial and technological developments, in system and software architecture and development in industry, as well as in research institutions.

Learning Target
Mathematical Geodesy In the chapter interpolation and prediction the students learn about Kernel-based methods, Kriging,
collocation and the unification. The selected problems in datum transition and plate movements the
classical similarity transformation is leaded back to the rotation problem round on space axes, and
from this the Euler-Plate Model. Further the Molodenski approach of a 3D similarity transformation
is treated, as well as the formulation of continuity equations here. The height reference surfaces
chapter is dealing with the DFHBF-approach, continuity modelling and the extension of the app-
roach to physical observations The chapter on advanced map projection is dealing the general de-
rivation of distortions and the of conformal map-projection concept based on Cauchy-Riemann’s
differential equation theory. The chapter of numerical integration treats the different approaches
and their application to mathematical geodesy. Following the decoupling of the differential equa-
tions of Legendre by a variable transformation, the numerical integration is applied to the solution
of the 1st geodetic major task.
Adjustment
The chap. on sequential adjustment procedures is dealing with different procedures for the treat-
ment of modification of the Gauß-Markov Model concerning the functional and stochastical model.
The chap. on integrated and quasi integrated geodesy is dealing with the modelling of different kind
of sensor observations in the 3D geometry and the gravity space. The chap. on generalized M-
Estimation is based on the maximum likelihood estimation theory, and sets a main focus on robust
estimation for linear and non-linear model, and special cases like robust Kalmanfiltering and L1-
norm. The numerical solution procedures for generalized M-estimation are also treated. The adjust-
ment of free networks is based of the theory of generalized inverses for singular normal equations,
followed by the derivation of the S-transformation and the relation to the Helmert-transformation
and the so-called “inner solution” of free networks. The next chap. defines measures to quantify
and to describe in the coordinate space the distortions of parameters and geodetic networks due to
deterministic and stochastic errors, which leads to special and generalized eigenvalue problems
Further theory of the contribution of single observations to different groups of parameters is
treated.

Learning Target
Human Geography
The aim of the course is to give students fundamental knowledge in selected sections of Human Geography and nearby disciplines. Students should be able to understand and to evaluate temporal spatial processes which are responsible for changes on the global, regional and local level. They should learn that geographical knowledge is not - and should not attempt to be - static and detached from what is going on in the world, but is rather dynamic and profoundly influenced by events, struggels and politics beyond university life. Navigation
The students shall get an overview about navigation principles, navigation models and the most im-portant navigations systems (GNSS, INS, celestial, and others). Because of the trend of miniaturi-sation of navigation sensors (MEMS-sensors) in applications and in development the students learn about the mathematical models of sensor integration, in order to be able to carry on navi-gation developments in industry and in research.
Facility Management
The students understand the basics of the Facility Management and Computer Aided Facility Management. They know the appropriate data models, the data acquisition methods and presentation forms. The students are able to develop data models for. They can convert these models in a CAFM system, generate relevant queries and visualize the results according to demanded standards.
