Surveying is the precise science of determining the positions of, and the distances between, points in 2D and 3D space. There is a big difference between aerial photography and surveying. Surveys provide critical information that enables informed decision making ranging from construction site planning, to design and upkeep of infrastructure, to delineating cadastral property boundaries, and more. A drone survey is simply a survey conducted from overhead using a drone. 3, record 1, English, - drone%20surveying

Although very closely related to each other, mapping can be described as the more "theoretical" side of the practice while surveying is the more "practical" side.

The construction of novel types of fibre lasers often requires doped fibres which first have to be designed, manufactured and finally characterised. In this presentation we give a comprehensive survey of the development of novel doped multiple clad fibers. Starting with a design of the refractive index profile of such a fibre, we have optimised the manufacturing based on an MCVD(modified chemical vapor deposition) process. Tests of the manufactured fibre including the measurements of the absorption spectrum and the dopant concentration are reported. 1, record 2, English, - modified%20CVD%20method

Les ouvrages d'art sont des ouvrages de maçonnerie ou de charpente nécessités par la construction soit d'une voie de communication, soit d'un dispositif de protection contre l'action de la terre ou de l'eau, soit enfin d'un dispositif de retenue des eaux. De tels ouvrages sont qualifiés "d'art" parce que leur conception et leur réalisation font intervenir des connaissances où l'expérience joue un rôle au moins aussi important que la théorie. Cet ensemble de connaissances constitue d'ailleurs ce que l'on appelle couramment l'art de l'ingénieur. 10, record 15, French, - ouvrage%20de%20g%C3%A9nie%20civil
