Abstract

Hydraulic Facilities, like (Dams) Form Great Vital Importance to Countries of the World in General, as they are A Fundamental Pillar in Developing A Country’s Infrastructure, And A Significant Support to built a Strong Multipolar Economy. Because of Climate change, Rise in Temperatures and Its Effect on The Globe, Increased Land desertification, Not to Mention the Unsystematic Exploitation of Natural Water Sources and Other Factors That May Be the Cause of Local or Regional Conflicts to Achieve a Water Security. Mosel Dam is a living example of hydraulic installations with no  just local dimension ; Rather, it is regional and international, which has occupied public opinion over decades, since its establishment in the early 1980s until the present time,  more than fifty years, during which the Iraqi Ministry of Water Resources, represented by (the General Authority for Survey & the General Authority for Dams and Reservoirs), worked hard to manage and monitor safety of Mosul Dam. According to scientific principles in which we keep pace with global scientific progress and the development of geospatial technology to achieve the best results in detecting deformation or distortions that may occur in the horizontal and vertical movement of the dam, which will be explained in detail of this research. In this study, I will review the stages of development in field monitoring of control points in the GCN-Geodetic Control Network that distributed on the dam site and its surrounding area, according to a technical & engineering recommendations approved by the consulting engineer at the time.
