Department of Civil Engineering has organized a 5 day Workshop on “Total Station and DGPS" during 22 March to 26 March 2021 for the students of Diploma and B Tech of Civil Engineering. Total 30 Students have participated in this workshop, among them 7
students belonging to other institutes like ATC Indore, GT. Polytechnic Jaora, SYSITS Ratlam and Govt. ITI, Mandsaur.
Er. Saurabh Jain, Managing Director of JP Construction & JP survey
academy, Bhopal with his assistant was the resource person. Er. Jain took 2 hour session in the starting of the workshop in which he explained the importance and scope of the advanced and latest instruments like Laser Scanners, DGPS, GNSS Systems, Robotic Total Stations, Mobile Sensor Platforms, Smart Antennas, Receivers, Controllers, Accessories and Manual Total Stations etc. During workshop students performed various tasks on the field with two Total Stations & one DGPS in two shifts of 5 days. In the second half of the first day students have learned about the centering & leveling of Total Station. Second day students generate a job in TS, take various points on the field for survey and find northing, easting, zenith, sloping distance, horizontal and vertical angle. Third day they learned about the height, area and volume measurement of any object on the field. Fourth day they performed all the previous activity through DGPS instead of TS. Fifth day they performed demarcation with RTK method, repeated all the surveying activity and practiced the whole day. Mr. Jain also explained about the career opportunities in the field of advanced surveying. He also gives the opportunity for our students to work with his company after completion of their course. Previously two of our diploma students were placed in their company through the department. The purpose of organizing this workshop was to make the students industry ready in the field of advanced surveying. Total Station and DGPS are also part of the curriculum. This workshop was proved fruitful for the students because they learned to perform important various tasks of surveying by Total Station and DGPS. Nowadays for the surveying work the Total Station and DGPS machine are preferred by industries and the Revenue department for its preciseness and less time consuming quality. So that with the help of this kind of workshops the students can find more opportunity to nurture their future aspects.
