Back 2

system that incorporates all types of geographical data

geographic information system

Back 3

it is a collective term that includes the process of capturing data, to storing, processing and analyzing, and presenting said data

Front 4

time

Back 4

4th dimension in geologic maps

Front 5

aerial images and mapping

Back 5

any photo taken by airplanes, drones, satellites, or similar items

georeferencing

Back 6

assigning one pixel to one location (latitude and longitude)

Front 7

Back 7

detection (and observing/monitoring) of the physical characteristics of a place via measurement of its reflected and emitted radiation from a distance

Front 8

structural engineer

Back 8

Usually use handbooks or manufacturer's data book for parameters concerning material modelling

Front 9

geotechnical engineer

Back 9

uses site investigation to model the underlying strata

Front 10

Geotechnical engineer

Back 10

studies the materials underlying in the site

Front 11

subsurface exploration

Back 11

process of determining the layers of natural soil deposits that will underlie a proposed structure

Front 12

subsurface exploration

Back 12

includes physical properties which may influence the design and construction of a structure and its underlying foundation

Front 13

subsurface exploration
