Commission 6
FIG Commission 6 deals with activities concerning
- Acquisition, processing and management of topometric data and of
all related information throughout the life cycle of a project;
- Development and implementation of adequate survey methods in
Engineering projects;
- Metrology, quality control and validation for civil construction
and manufacturing of large objects;
- Deformation monitoring, analysis and interpretation;
- Prediction of deformation and movements in Engineering projects,
mines and areas of geological hazard.
The goals of Commission 6 are to
- Promote the knowledge, skills and abilities of surveyors in civil
and industrial works within the various professional fields of
Engineering;
- Support all development and multidisciplinary expertise leading to
integrated survey methods, using various instruments and sensors and
combining geometry with all other data relevant to each Engineering
problem;
- Provide a forum for exchange of knowledge related to Engineering
analysis of survey data for the study of structures;
- In addition to the links with related Working Groups of IAG, ISM
and ISPRS, look for possible connections within organisations of
civil, structural and mechanical engineers and within those dealing
with metrology and quality control - at the national and
international level.
Commission 6 has established three
Working
Groups for 2011-2014.
