After successful completion of the course, students are able to solve exercises regarding astronomical coordinate systems, Earth gravity field, reference ellipsoid and satellite orbits. Examples are coordinate transformations or gravity reductions.

Examples following the contents of the lectures 'Introduction to Higher Geodesy I' and 'Introduction to Higher Geodesy II' will be discussed and solved. They form the mathematical basis of Astronomy and Higher Geodesy.

During the exercises the theoretical backround is recapitulated, exampels are handed out and discussed. 

You need a laptop or calculator to solve the exercises.

In this course, exercises are solved in small groups and short presentations are held.

Attendance is compulsory.

If you change your mind and do not plan to finish the exercise this semester, please unsubscribe within the deadline.

There are no lecture notes for this course. Exercise sheets can be downloaded via TUWEL.
