Geomatics Engineering and Remote Sensing
Geomatics Engineering and Remote Sensing is an engineering discipline concerned with the acquisition, management, analysis, interpretation, and visualization of geospatial data. This field integrates remote sensing—the science of obtaining information about the Earth from a distance using sensors on satellites, aircraft, or drones—with technologies like the Global Positioning System (GPS), Geographic Information Systems (GIS), and LiDAR to create highly accurate models of the planet's surface and environments. Geomatics engineers apply these tools to a wide range of problems, including land surveying, infrastructure design, environmental monitoring, natural resource management, and disaster response, providing the critical spatial context required for complex projects and scientific inquiry.
