Analysis of the Effects of Earth Shadowing on GNSS Satellite Orbits
(International Conference on Environmental Engineering (ICEE);1867, Chapter; Peer reviewed, 2011)Precise positioning by GNSS might incur some error when one or more of the satellites that are being observed happen to be in Earth shadow – in eclipse. This effect might be worsened if the Earth is passing through a period ... -
Analysis of the Information Needs for Existing Buildings for Integration in Modern BIM-Based Building Information Management
(International Conference on Environmental Engineering (ICEE);1867, Chapter; Peer reviewed, 2011)The challenge is to decide how to design a building information model (BIM) to support building maintenance and development for existing buildings.
