2006 – Overview of Geodetic Deformation Measurements of Dams

Dr. J. M. Rüeger

After a brief review of the origin and early days of the technique, the present role of geodetic deformation measurements is discussed. The design of geodetic measurement schemes is then considered, followed by a review of geodetic measurement, analysis and reporting techniques. An overview of the important discussions, that need to take place between engineers and surveyors in the design phase, follows. This covers the definition of the engineering needs and the resolution of surveying issues.
