Ground under the sea.

The objects or statistics data exhibit cyclic variation, which can be semi-regular

A line that intersects two points of the curve and cut the curve.

Map Projection that intersects the surface of Earth, distortion is not present at the intersection.

Data collected by externally, by another source that is not the user.

Line features, or portions of line features, used to define a route.

Rock formed from deposits of materials within water bodies.

Materials settled at the bottom of the liquid (e.g. Soild Sediments)

Map Generalization technique, to split/divide (segment) large area into smaller representative groups/regions.

Generally produced using technologies that can generate a single pulse or a continuous sweep of energy, the signal has both reflective and refractive qualities and can trave through mediums such as water and/or layers of rocks.

Map Generalization technique, choosing particular elements of the map that are representative of concept/thought, to reduce clutter on map.

The intentional degredation of public (civilian) GPS signals for national security purposes.

Measure of degree of spatial indepence of points used in kriging.

A diagram that indicates the spatial autocorrelation of the measured sample points, relating the semivariance and the distance of points used in kriging .

Spherical Error Probability

Computers/Machines in the network that provides services/processes/data, a single Server can have many Clients.

Period of time when receivers simultaneously collect and store data from same constellation of satellites at one specific point.

Jsurvey used to set out exact position of structures within the legal boundary of land/plot/parcel/property, mainly used in construction of new buildings.

Sewage discharge point.

Numerical system based on sixty (60).

Instrument with graduated arc with sighting mechanism used for measuring angular distances between objects. Type: 1) Nautical Sextant 2) Box Sextant

Raster image of change in elevation using light and shadows.

The outline of an object

Data format used in ESRI products.

Way in which ship/boat moves and interacts on water. Type: 1) Pitch 2) Roll 3) Yaw 4) Heave 5) Sway 6) Surge

Shallow body of water.

Short Range Navigation

Control of survey location through the use of shore beacons, locations with established positions via land survey.

Boundary where water meets the land.

Type of terrestrial positioning based on towers using EM signals.

A path between two vertices (or nodes) in a graph that the sum of the weights of its constituent edges is minimized.

Network analysis to find the path with the minimum cumulative cost.

Decrease in volume of earthworks after deposition and compaction.

Social Impact Assessment

Tilts broad-beam echosounder to one side to produce a series of acoustic return signal to have more coverage of the seabed.

Side-Looking radar (SLR) is the airborne and spaceborne radar remote sensing system equiped with an antenna which is fixed below the aircraft and pointed to the side.

Transmitter is connected to the target to provide the primary current, the flow of current would have to be sustained between the target and the ground, transmitter is not grounded.

Loss of quality on an electronic signal.

It relies on carrie phase observables and is dependent on the creation of an intermediate/beat frequencing through multiplying the incoming carrier by itself.

Quantifying the comparison between desired signal and background noise.

The significant figures are meaningful digits contributing to the precision of a number.

Value in semivariance or covariance model where semivariance starts to level.

Deposits carried by running water.

Route following in one direction without looping on itself or branching.
