Research Object and Relevance. The main components of the strain tensor and their accuracy assessment are the research objects in this work. When conducting monitoring using geodetic methods, it is usually not enough to determine only the displacements of reference points; it is also necessary to determine the presence and magnitude of deformations. This task is directly related to the accuracy assessment of such characteristics as principal strains, dilatation, shear strains, and rotation. Research Methods. In co...

The use of digital twin models in immovable culture heritage enables better decisionmaking about preventive maintenance, heritage management, and interpretation, as well as accurate digital documentation. This publication discusses an approach for creating a digital twin using different methods of spatial data acquisition: close range terrestrial digital photogrammetry, aerial digital photogrammetry and terrestrial laser scanning. The "Holy Transfiguration" Church in Pomorie, Bulgaria which is the oldest functioni...

In recent years GNSS studies play an increasing role in studding of natural risk hazards and active tectonics. The area of Sofia is part of the broad South-Balkan Extensional Tectonic System. This highly populated area of economic significance, even showing to be not so active as other parts of the System is also affected by natural hazards, as active seismicity, landslides, rock falls, debris, etc. GNSS studies are extremely important for understanding of natural hazards and recent geodynamics of the area, especi...

This article outlines time series analysis of sea level data from Varna tide gauge stations, to solve for short and long term sea level variations. The period of observations span to 1928 - 2022. Monthly sea level data were processed using a linear regression model includes mean sea level, trend, annual, semiannual and decadal variations. Analysis of monthly sea level data for period 1928-2022 clearly indicates annual and decadal variations of mean sea level. Hourly sea level data of radar tide gauge include the p...

The Cultural Heritage Act regulates the preservation and protection of the cultural heritage of the Republic of Bulgaria, and the State ensures the protection of cultural heritage regardless of its location. The procedure for identifying, declaring and granting the status of sites as immovable cultural property, as well as the procedure for establishing temporary protection regimes for declared immovable cultural heritage sites and for the protection regimes for immovable cultural property, are also laid down in s...

The monitoring of geodynamic processes with modern GNSS technology in the area of Sofia and Southwest Bulgaria has been going on for more than 25 years. To investigate modern crustal motions in the area, GNSS data obtained between 1996 and 2022 are analyzed to obtain the velocity field for southwestern Bulgaria. Every year, measurements are carried out on a part of the points, and the last measurements were carried out in 2022. For the entire period, monitoring covered 28 stations. To evaluate the new result for t...

In geodetic practice, the definition of spatial objects in relation to a uniform and reliable coordinate system is of paramount importance. In the Republic of Bulgaria by the Decree of the Council of Ministers No 153 of 29 July 2010 and Regulation No 2 of 30 July 2010 on the Definition and Maintenance of the Bulgarian Geodetic System 2005 (BGS2005). The points of the State GPS network (SGPSN), defined in the ETRS89 coordinate system, realization ETRF2000, epoch 2005.0 represent a realization of BGS2005 and their i...

The purpose of this study is the analysis of the dynamics of tectonic movements accompanied by two strong seismic events that occurred in the Durres area (Albania) in September-November 2019, through the use of GNSS technology, applied to national permanent satellite geodetic networks. Previous studies have been carried out on our study area by foreign authors from Croatia, Greece, and Italy. For our study case, we relied on geodetic weekly data secured from the Bulletins of Italian and Austrian stations, BSW52, o...

In order to study and analyze the state of the State Gravimetric Network for the territory of the Republic of Bulgaria, relative gravimetric measurements were carried out for part of the country. The studied territory covers 9 points of the reference gravimetric network. The gravimetric measurements were designed and implemented according to the realized gravimetric lines between them and gravity differences along the gravimetric lines were calculated. The obtained gravity differences are compared with the same fr...

In this study, we aim to demonstrate the change in the topography of the sea floor as a result of the sedimentation of rivers. The study area is the Divjaka Bay, bounded to the north by the delta of the Shkumbin River and to the south by the delta of the Seman River, on the Adriatic coast of Albania. The method used is the Integrated Satellite Bathymetric Surveying method. The monitoring period extends from 2017 to 2020, based on 4 monitoring campaigns. The longitudinal bathymetric profile extends northsouth, in p...

The field of construction is currently one of the most stable and active fields of activity. It presents complex activities that are done in phase and chronologically until the end of completion execution stage. Realization of the foundation or its characteristic elements it includes a number of preparatory activities such as: land preparation and release of various tasks, shoveling and ground consolidation. The type of consolidation it is chosen according to the depth of the escape and It is about choosing a supp...

According to the Bulgarian legislation, the boundaries of the specialized objects of the Black Sea coast - sea beaches, coastal and coastal protection systems and facilities, coastal lakes, lagoons, limanas and wetlands, as well as sand dunes are determined by direct geodetic measurements and are reflected in the cadastral map and the property register, i.e. specialized maps and a specialized register shall be drawn up in accordance with a by-law (ordinance) on the conditions and procedure for the commissioning, c...
