ESTABLISHMENT OF SECOND ORDER GEODETIC CONTROLS IN BAUCHI METROPOLIS, USING DIFFERENTIAL GLOBAL POSITIONING SYSTEM (DGPS) RECEIVERS
Abstract
ABSTRACT
This project presents the establishment of second order geodetic control points within Bauchi
Metropolis, Bauchi State, aimed at enhancing the geodetic infrastructure of the area. Due to the
destruction or loss of existing control points, this work was designed to establish a network of
accurate and reliable control stations using Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS)
techniques. The project involves reconnaissance, planning, field observation, data processing,
and coordinate computation to produce precise geodetic control points that serve as reference
frameworks for future surveys, mapping, and engineering works. The results demonstrate the
efficiency and accuracy achievable through GNSS methods, providing an essential foundation
for geospatial development within Bauchi Metropolis.
