The Evolution of Traditional Urban Survey using Applicable Surveying Techniques

Journal Title: International Journal of Modern Engineering Research (IJMER) - Year 2015, Vol 5, Issue 1

Abstract

This research deals with how to facilitate and manage surveying methods to accomplish modernized and cost effective urban survey with best achievable accuracy. This is done by replacing traditional surveying methods with modern methods from both theoretical and practical point of view. At first, a theoretical assessment process on a tradition urban planning project in Saudi Arabia is performed by replacing traditional urban planning techniques previously used with more applicable surveying techniques as total stations regarding different matters such as applicability, cost and accuracy. After approving the main idea of this modernization process, a practical urban planning case study is performed using total station, geodetic GPS receivers and GPS navigators, on a private settlement block consisting of 6 buildings in a crowded neighborhood of Cairo city. The applied surveying techniques showed high efficiency regarding cost and effort, while saving observation time reaching to 60%. Accordingly, the adopted practical application proved to be beneficial for all desired aspects, as well as being promising for more extensive study areas in future
