 Most surveyors can operate and manage their instruments if no movements 
occur. But what happens, if the instrument or the surveyed object is moving? New 
problems arise like e.g. synchronisation of the measurements and modeling of the 
movement. These and other related tasks, investigations and practical solutions 
are summarized under the term “kinematic measurements”. Multi-sensor-systems and 
their application play an important part for kinematics.  
If you are interested in this topic related to monitoring as well as machine 
guidance, then you should definitely join this group to share your experience or 
learn from others. We will organize sessions at FIG events, participate at 
symposia on related topics e.g. “Machine Guidance and Control” and “Mobile 
Mapping” and facilitate the interchange of knowledge among practitioners and 
researchers. 
Policy issues
  - Cooperation with all organisation involved in the field of GNSS e.g. IAG 
	and ISO 
 
	- Bring to together practitioners, instrument manufactures and scientists 
	that deal with kinematic measurements
 
	- Maintaining contact with instrument and sensor manufactures to provide 
	state-of-the-art information to the users
 
	- Co-operation with Commission 6 WG “Machine Guidance and Control”
 
	- Co-operation with study groups IC-SG2 and IC-SG3 of the Intercommission 
	Committee on Theory (ICCT) of the International Association of Geodesy

Specific projects
	
		- Publications (e.g. via web) and a special issue in a well-known 
		scientific journal about the following topics:
 
	 
	
		
			- Kinematic aspects of geodetic instruments like total stations 
			and GNSS receivers as well as with typical kinematic sensors like 
			inertial measurement units, odometers, etc.
 
			- Time issues like synchronisation and dead time.
 
			- Integration of different sensors to Multi-Sensor-Systems. 
 
			- Quality of integrated kinematic measurements

	the Quality of Geodetic Observation and Monitoring Systems, Munich, Germany, 
	2011 and 3rd International Conference on Machine Guidance and Control in 
	Stuttgart, Germany, 2012.
 
	- Technical Papers at Working Weeks, Regional Conferences and Commission 5 
	Symposia and Workshops
 
	- Providing technical background information (e.g. via web pages) for 
	surveyors dealing with kinematic tasks and applications during the whole 
	period.
 
	- Providing a Special Issue of a well-known scientific journal e.g. the 
	Journal of Applied Geodesy in 2013/14
