Course compendium Geodetic and photogrammetric measurement and calculation technology
"Geodetic and photogrammetric measurement and calculation technology" is a Swedish-language compendium produced in collaboration between Lantmäteriet (LM), the Royal Institute of Technology (KTH), Lund University (LU) and University of Gävle (HiG).
The compendium is intended for basic courses in geodetic and photogrammetric measurement technology (community measurement) and is included in the revision of HMK. Among other things, it will help to fill the need for technical descriptions in Nya HMK.
The compendium was produced through funding from the authors' employers, and through a financial contribution from Kartografiska Sällskapet (new window)
At the end of each chapter there are Reading Tips and Thanks - where the background to each chapter appears. Some chapters are completely newly written while others are compilations/adjustments of others' texts. Furthermore, there are references, indexes and abbreviations at the end of the compendium.
Chapters 1–11 were thoroughly revised in 2021 by Jonas Ågren, Lars Harrie and Milan Horemuz. Only minor changes were then made for chapters 12–15.
The compendium is protected by license
The compendium is protected by the "creative commons by-nc-nd" license. This means that it is free to distribute the compendium, but only in non-commercial contexts. Furthermore, the work may not be processed and the person using the work must state the author; the author in this case is ' Lantmäteriet m.fl.'. It is allowed to copy the compendium and sell it for cost price (= printing cost plus any shipping cost).

GUM, to express measurement uncertainty
GUM, Guide to the Expression of Uncertainty, is a world standard for expressing measurement uncertainty.
This standard was gradually introduced in Swedish measurement technology during the 2010s, including in connection with the new publication of HMK.
GUM is presented below in the form of an article, an accompanying presentation slide show and a number of examples and in-depth studies. The material is intended to be used for information about GUM and in the education in measurement technology at colleges, universities, etc.

(lecture by CG Persson, Q-KEN, Riga, 25 October 2011).
Lantmäteriet, The Royal Institute of Technology, KTH, Lund University and the University of Gävle started a joint project in 2010 to introduce GUM in measurement technology in Sweden.

Measurement technical skill
§ 13 of the Survey Proclamation prescribed "authority to independently carry out surveying and mapping". In connection with the measurement announcement being discontinued in 2010 (SFS 2010:167 (in Swedish, pdf, new window)) new recommendations were drawn up in collaboration between Lantmäteriet, the industry and the educational institutions.
The following documents formed the basis for the decision for the new concept of "basic measurement technical skill". No body for formal testing of the skill has been established. as a practical experience.

Technical explanations and instructions for the measurement announcement (TFA)
Older guidelines that preceded the "Handbook for the measurement announcement" and consist of the following parts:
Page 1-16: Introduction with comments and copy of the measurement announcement (SFS 1974: 339)
Page 17-67: Basic guidelines
Pages 68-477: Technical explanations and instructions for the measurement announcement, abbreviated “TFA.” This is a more comprehensive and detailed description of the guidelines. References to TFA can be found in older administrative documents and measurement documents.
