Introduction
Geomatics Engineers serve society by collecting, monitoring, archiving, and maintaining our national spatial infrastructure. Geomatics systems include real property boundary determination, aerial and digital mapping, land and geographic information systems (LIS/GIS), geodesy and geodetic surveying (GPS), remote sensing, environmental and resource mapping, Geomatics applications programming, project management, route design, and construction location. While learning how to use a vast array of Geomatics tools a solid theoretical grounding prepares you for a recession-proof Geomatics engineering career.
