測量

測量學，簡稱測量，係指對地球嘅表面特徵作出相對大規模同準確嘅量度，目的多數係要協助土木工程上嘅工作：測量師要負責親身去一笪地方視察攞數據－途中要用到好多複雜嘅量度架生；度完之後就要處理同報告啲數據，而呢啲數據跟住就會俾建築師同工程師等嘅人員攞去用。

舉個簡單例子，家陣政府想起一棟建築物或者一座橋，喺郁手施工之前實會請測量師幫手；測量師會攞住軟尺同三維掃瞄等嘅架生，親身去預想工地度吓笪地每一點幾高、每一段斜坡幾多角度、以及係每笪水體幾大幾深... 噉嘅一大拃數據；然後測量師就要將攞到嘅數據以數字加埋圖像嘅方式表達出嚟，而且要表達得易睇易明，等建築師同工程師可以睇住啲數據，計劃想起嘅嘢要點樣設計同埋施工。

自從文明早期以嚟，人一路都有喺度起大型嘅構造，自自然然一路都有用到測量技術。到咗廿一世紀初，測量學經已成為咗工程學不可或缺嘅一門專業，包括係基礎建設、建築設計同城市規劃等嘅工作都需要搵測量師幫手；而且廿一世紀初嘅學術界仲有研究點樣改良測量用嘅技術，務求做到令測量嘅準確度同效率有咁高得咁高－理論同實踐都受到重視。
