Geodetic support of the territory of Chernivtsi oblast (history, current state)

Purpose. The purpose of the research is to substantiate the theoretical and scientific-methodical bases of the importance of geodetic support of the territories of the regions, to assess the possibility of creating topographic maps and plans of one or another scale on the existing geodetic network. Methods. To achieve the purpose of the research, the following methods and techniques were used: historical analysis (to study the history of geodetic support), geodetic (to determine the required density of geodetic points when conducting topographic surveys without violating regulations), mathematical (to determine the completion of the geodetic network, assessments of the possibility of creating topographic maps and plans for a particular area), methods of cartography (to display the points of geodetic support) and others. Results. The history of research of geodetic support of the regions of the territory of Ukraine is hundreds of years old, but only, in our opinion, in recent years (the years of independence of Ukraine) they have acquired a scientific character. The analysis of geodetic support of the territory of Chernivtsi oblast is carried out. The possibility of creating topographic maps and plans on the existing geodetic network has been assessed. To create topographic maps and plans in accordance with the requirements of regulations, the necessary completion of the geodetic network on the territory of Chernivtsi oblast is calculated. Scientific novelty. The history of geodetic support of the territory of Chernivtsi oblast is supplemented by its current state, which is based on the “Basic provisions of the State Geodetic Network of Ukraine” of 1998, which in 2013 were replaced by “Procedure for building the State Geodetic Network”. On the basis of the current DGM, the possibility of creating topographic maps and plans was assessed. The completion of the points of the geodetic network is calculated according to the requirements of normative documents. Practical meaning. Theoretical generalizations, methodical receptions of the conducted researches can be used during carrying out similar researches in other regions, and concrete results of researches – by the organizations, enterprises, departments which carry out geodetic works in the territory of Chernivtsi oblast.
