What is Geomatic Engineering

Geomatic engineering or ‘geomatics’ is an elite branch of knowledge concentrating on gathering, management, analysis, and interpretation. It combines numerous techniques such as surveys, remote sensing, or GIS/GPS to accurately measure and map the earth’s surface and its features or characteristics. Geomatic engineers work on land surveying, urban planning, environmental monitoring, and navigation systems. Their expertise is crucial in areas like cartography, resource management, and disaster response. Geomatic engineering is all about harnessing spatial data to understand better and manage our physical world.
