Concept explainers

Professional survey

A professional survey is a systematic questionnaire that the target audience fills out online, usually by filling out google forms. Professional surveys can vary in length and format. The data is stored on a website and the testing tool usually provides a certain level of data analysis in addition to a professional expert review. Several professional online survey softwares are present worldwide like, SoGoSurvey, SurveyGizmo, SurveyMonkey, Qualtrics, and so on.

Question

Why should we choose to use GNSS over terrestrial observations for surveying? In what circumstances should we not use GNSS?

Determining the relative position of points on the Earth's surface and measuring the angle and distance between them in order to calculate the required parameters such as elevation and enclosed area.
