Against the backdrop of rapid economic development,the number and scale of geological engineering projects have been increasing year by year.Measurement is a prerequisite for geologi-cal work.If the measurement results are not accurate,it will greatly affect the progress and efficiency of the work.Therefore,surveying work in geological engineering has received great atten-tion.With the advancement of technology,many new mapping techniques continue to emerge and have been widely applied in geological engineering surveying,greatly accelerating the effi-ciency of geological engineering surveying.GPS surveying tech-nology is one of the new technologies.Based on this,this article studies the application of GPS technology in geological engineer-ing surveying for reference.
