Even the most imaginative pioneers did not foresee the real impact of GPS on many fields of professional life, in particular my field, geodesy and surveying. |
He worked on geodesy but became interested in conformal map projections where he invented a quincuncial map projection using elliptic functions. |
Professor Woodward has published many papers on subjects in astronomy, geodesy, mathematics and mechanics. |
The activities primarily involved geodesy, geo-prospecting, deep bore drilling, engineering and environmental studies and socio-economic studies. |
To my feeling, this is the most exciting GNSS development of the past 15 years within the field of geodesy, surveying, and geoinformation. |
While Laplace and Gauss contributed to the physical sciences such as astronomy and geodesy, Fisher used his mathematical gifts to till the fertile ground of biology. |
