For what kinds of things do we need geospatial information?
• Municipal Engineering
• Highway Design and Construction
• Environmental studies;
• Management of land and marine resources;
• Monitoring of dams, oil fields, and mines for subsidence or movement;
• Navigation of ships and aircraft;
• Oceanography;
• Real estate transactions;
• Tourism ... Market Research … and lots more!

Geomatics Engineers...
• ...use advanced instrumentation for precise positioning
and measurements on engineering, mining, property
development, and boundary determination projects.

Geomatics Engineers
employ airborne and satellite
data from state-of-the-art
computerized imaging systems
for topographic, environmental,
and resource mapping.

Geomatics Engineers...
• integrate position, time, and movement into sophisticated
transportation, navigation, and management information
systems;

Geomatics Engineers...
...develop software to depict
measurements and analyses of the earth's
surface, both on land and in the oceans.

Geomatics Engineers...
• ...use their interest in math, science, computers, and the
environment to find answers to the questions: what is it?
where is it? and how much is there?
