Geomatics Engineering Resources
Overview
Geomatics Engineering is the science and technology of gathering, analyzing, and managing geographic and spatial information. It includes land surveying, mapping, GPS, remote sensing, and geographic information systems (GIS). Geomatics engineers help design and monitor infrastructure projects, manage natural resources, and support navigation and urban planning using precise location data.
