Program Summary
Surveying and Geoinformatics is a multidisciplinary course that focuses on the measurement, mapping, analysis, and management of spatial data. It combines principles of engineering, geography, and information technology to study the Earth's surface and its features. The course covers various surveying techniques, including land, hydrographic, and geodetic surveying, which are used for construction, mapping, and boundary determination.
It also incorporates modern geospatial technologies such as Geographic Information Systems (GIS), Global Positioning Systems (GPS), and Remote Sensing, enabling students to collect, process, and analyze spatial data efficiently. These technologies are applied in urban planning, environmental management, disaster monitoring, and infrastructure development.
The course provides a strong foundation in mathematical and computational methods used for spatial data analysis and visualization. It also includes practical fieldwork, where students gain hands-on experience with surveying instruments like total stations, drones, and satellite imagery. Graduates of this program can work in industries such as construction, land administration, oil and gas, environmental science, and urban development, making it a crucial field for national development and sustainable resource management.
