Narrow shaft bored vertically/horizontally for the purposes of examining under-surface conditions or extraction materials.

Practice of making a detailed record of geological formations in a Borehole.

Documentation of seabed and sub-bottom materials relying on acousting impedance principles to detect density and type of material.

Approach to design and implementation, where implementation starts from the base of the organization or where design is dictated from the bottom tiers of the organization.

Delineation between plots of land to show ownership, often marked by physical landmarks (e.g. fence, trees, boundary markers, etc…).

Proof of boundary for marked parcels of land/plots/property (e.g., Land Title, Deed, survey information, fence, physical marking of boundary lines on terrain, etc…)

Nodes where hydraulic grade is known (e.g., tanks, reservoirs).

Process which re-establishes the original survey with a field survey with the use of artifical features (e.g. survey mark, survey pegs, fence, building corners).

Survey conducted to locate and/or establish legal boundaries of parcels of land/plots/property (e.g. physically establishing fence lines).

Method to adjust errors in bearings due to angular or linear inaccuracies where it assumes observations are all done to the same degree of precision and that misclosures could be logically distributed within the Survey Run.

Graphical representation of statistical data shown as a rectangle to represent upper and lower quartiles, maximum and minimum value, and median value.

Reinforced concrete box sections for culverts, storm drains and sewers, generally physically accessible.

Binary Phase Shift Keying

Water with more salinity than fresh water but less than seawater, generaly found in estuaries.

Control Surveys used for monitoring underground construction and/or development (e.g. tunnelling).

Line feature that interrupts the slope of a surface (e.g., stream, shorelines, ridges, roads, etc…).

Barrier built into the sea to protect the coast/harbour from force of waves.

To connect or reduce the gap between subjects and/or disciplines, make connections between ideas and knowledge from various subjects and/or disciplines.

Having a wide range of knowledge in the general sense, not limiting to the narrow profession or area of study.

EM wave transmitted across large geographical area.

Located within the Navigation message, provided by the Control Segment, it is the correction provided to the receiver to bring the satellite clock time with GPS time.

Method for manipulating and/or exploring dynamic data/map.

Backsight

Zones depicted on a GIS and/or imagery to show areas that satisfies certain conditions (e.g. vegetative buffer, stormwater buffer).

Features created from Buffer Zones.

Area at a specific distance from a spatial feature, to highlight areas around a feature.

GIS operation to create Buffer Zones at a specific distance from spatial features.

Areas where development is present and has reached a certain density.

Reciprocal of Compressability, the relative change in volume when pressure is applied uniformly over the surface.

Increase in volume of earthworks after excavation.

The problem of refining a visual reconstruction to produce jointly optimal 3D structure and viewing parameter estimates of the relative motion and the optical characteristics of the camera(s) employed to acquire the images.
