Geodesy & Astronomy
• Measurements and representation of the Earth, including its gravity field, in a 3D time-varying space
Geodesy [Vaníček, Krakiwsky, 1986.]
• Terrestrial (relative)• Satellite, gravimetric & astrometric (“absolute”)
Types of geodetic measurements

Role Of Geodetic Astronomy
• Positioning of state geodetic networks• Orientation of networks• Tracing of long traverses
Historically
• Calibration basis for inertial systems• High-resolution geoid determination
Current tasks

Astro-geodetic work in Serbia
• Before 1st World War• Between WW1 & WW2• After WW2
Three phases
![Page 6: Historical Review of Astro-Geodetic Observations in Serbia](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061201/547a2c66b4af9fef158b4a24/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)

First determinations
• Scientific work of Stevan Bošković in Pulkovo• Differences between surveys of Serbia and
neighbouring countries
Prehistory
• Different orientation of state networks• Neglected vertical deflections
Bošković’s conclusions

7/15
Determinations of Bošković
• Measurements performed between 1900 and 1911• 30 latitude and 30 azimuths measured• Processing finished in 1952
Some details about measurements
• Wars between 1912 and 1920• Need for urgent topographic survey during wartime• Carrying all collected material through Albania to Corfu• Second World War
The time gap between measurements and processing

Determinations of Bošković
• Two universal instruments Kern• 12 chronometers• aneroids• thermometers
Instruments used

Between Wars
• Meridian arc measurements (22nd meridian)• Mean parallel 45°• Determinations of Belgrade longitude
Measurements held by Military Geographic Institute
Campaigns were a part of the International determinations of longitudes in 1926 and 1933
• 40 points determined• results published only for 21

After WW2
• Military geographic institute• Federal geodetic directorate• Astronomical observatory• Institute of geodesy
Relevant institutions
What was measured
• Laplace points (), 26 points• geoid points (), 33 points

Today
• Intensive use of computers• Easier time keeping• Portability of equipment
Technical possibilities
Institutions working on geodetic problems
• Department of Geodesy & Geoinformatics• Governmental Geodetic Authority• Military Geographic Institute

12/15
• Advanced approach to a standard astrometric method
• Need for portability - use of geodetic equipment
• GPS as time-keeping system

• Modular construction
• Zenit-lot as an optical instrument
• CCD camera for star tracks registration
• GPS micro-controller
Observing Zenithal Stars

Future
• Raising the integration level of modular systems• Incorporating electronic levels for interpretation the
horizontal surface• Device driver improvement
Improvement of measuring systems
• Lack of appropriate funding
Problem
