Key Features
The map co-ordinate conventions adopted in southern African survey datums are used throughout.  The reader is also introduced to the international UTM co-ordinate system as well as to geographic co-ordinates.  The Cape, Hart94 and ITRF survey datums as well as modern control system support through VRS are described.
The cadastral methods used in South Africa and most SADC countires are described.
The material flows a logical sequence, starting with fundamental theoretical concepts, building up to general and then advanced applications in the workplace.
All methods and techniques are illustrated and explained.
Practical worked examples in real-life situations are used to explain the methods introduced
