 Field-Based Surveying Training for Engineering Students


Asst. Prof. Dr. Mustafa Yurdabal APAK conducted INS210 - Ölçme Bilgisi course, a practical field study using surveying instruments was carried out with the students. Students had the opportunity to reinforce their theoretical knowledge with practice.


As part of the INS210 - Surveying course, a practical field training session was conducted by Asst. Prof. Dr. Mustafa Yurdabal APAK, a faculty member of the Civil Engineering Department at Istanbul Gelişim University. The training aimed to enhance students' hands-on experience with surveying instruments and techniques.

The field activity was carried out in designated areas within the university campus, providing students with the opportunity to apply theoretical knowledge to real-world scenarios. During the session, students actively used modern surveying equipment such as total stations, leveling instruments, and handheld GPS devices to perform angle measurements, distance calculations, and topographic surveys. They also engaged in group exercises involving the establishment of polygon points and basic data processing of collected measurements.

Through this practical training, students not only gained technical proficiency in using professional surveying tools but also developed teamwork and field organization skills. The experience helped them understand how coordinate systems are established in the field and how surveying data is collected for engineering and mapping applications.

Such field-based applications play a crucial role in the professional development of engineering students, equipping them with essential skills required in the industry. Our department remains committed to delivering hands-on educational opportunities that prepare students for the demands of professional engineering practice.
