| + | Since the scientific andpedagogical potential of the Department increased, it was divided into the Geodesy (as it is known nowadays) and Spherical astronomyand Higher geodesy Departments, headed by professors S.

Vidt's "Miernictwo"(1899) and "Miernictwoand teoria bledow and rachunek wyrownawczy" (1901) written by both professors. | ||

| + | Since 1912, theGeodesy Department was headed by Professor K. Vayhel - one of the most famous geodesic scientists in Western Ukraine atthat time. His scientificinterests were diverse. The professor's work on geodesy, gravimetry and photogrammetrycontributed considerably to the further development of geodesy. He was the first to use the aerial photography results to make the maps and plans forurban areas, including Lviv. K.Vayhel was the rector of Lviv Polytechnic from 1924 to 30 and headed theGeodesyDepartment for almost 30 years. Unfortunately, he and the large group of Lviv scientists were executed by theNazis on Vuletski hills on July 3rd, 1941. | ||

| + | After the World WarII, in1945, the Geodesy Faculty, established in Lviv Polytechnic, included the Geodesy Department. The seniorlecturer A. Motornyi was appointed to the post of the Department head. The importantachievement of the Department at this time was the systems of polygon links withbases located not perpendicular to the line, which is defined (as in the links of parallacticpolygonometry), but along this line, designed by A. Motornyi. Such links were later named the new polygonometrylinks. | ||

| + | Before the invention of the lightdistance measure device, such constructions widened the possibilities of usingthepolygonometry. They were very important and their detailed analysis became thebasis for the A. Motornyi doctor thesis. At the end of his life, the professor compiled the Russian-Ukrainiantechnical terms dictionary on geodesic range of disciplines. Unfortunately, he didn'tmanage to publish it. After the Independence of Ukraine, the dictionary was considerably filled up, mainly by senior lecturerV. Litynskyi and published in 1993. | ||

Kravtsov, R. Tartachynskyi and others), the Department beganstudying the impact of the environment on the results of geodetic measurements,asA. Motornyi proposed. D. Maslych studied the influence of the vertical refraction on the trigonometricleveling results in the mountains; A. Ostrovskyy investigated the effectof the lateral refraction on the accuracy of horizontal angles measuring in the urban polygonometryand the polygonometry along the rivers, railways and highways, L. Hyzhak observed the side refraction effect and triangular networks, built in flat area with heterogeneousunderlying surface (forest, tillage, sand etc.). He was the first of the Lvivland surveyors who paid attention to the dependence between variationsin images of the collimating objectives and refraction. | ||

Herewith the prevailing systematic but notrandom (as it was considered before) effect of refraction was proved. S.Plahotnyi investigated the rules of atmosphere influence on the light distancemeasurement; R.
