Description

Projects will involve small groups of students working as a team to complete the design and execution of selected tasks in Surveying and Spatial Information Systems. Topics may be cadastral surveys, the remote sensing analysis of the environment from satellite images, a digital photogrammetric mapping task, setting up a precise geodetic control network, the use of precise GPS techniques, collection of data for and design of a GIS system, a precise engineering survey or the development and analysis of a geospatial database of a region. Students will usually be required to attend a one week off campus field work (survey camp) and present the results of their group project in a well written technical report.
