Try that shit in Florida and tell me how you like it!!!! I did land surveying for 13 years and its hot as fuck in Florida! I did travel for around 3 year and saw about 46 states doing ALTA surveys
Essentially yes, however, there are different map projections that are usually used for representing large areas. Conical, Azimuthal, Lambert Conformal etc. are all different types of map projections that preserve different aspects of the map (ie, distance, shape, etc.). It is through multiple different projections that you can measure different aspects on a large scale and preserve certain qualities. I am currently only halfway through a degree in Geomatics Engineering at the University of Calgary, so I hope this helps.
My name is Marvin Maseko and i am currently in my third year phase of studying a National Diploma in Engineering Surveying (Geomatics) at the Tswhane University of Technology. This phase requires students to seek experiantial training at a company within our profession to further gain knowledge and awarness of our career. can anyone help?
Geography&Mathematics: Geomatics essentially encompasses the other 4, as they are "focuses". Geomatics is the engineering (problem solving) of "where", and those focuses are solutions to solving that problem. Geodesy regards solving the gravitational potential of a given body, which can be used for locating/position. Surveying is using measurement tools to physically locate/relate the object space to the real-world environment. Photogrammetry relates common photos to create an object-space.
I've Surveyed for 34 years (as a woman) .... I absolutely LOVE IT! I am currently in my second year (at 53yrs old) and have enjoyed it, so far, immensely! I'm @ University of Florida ....which IS #1!!!
it is really civil engineering because they deal mostly with lands & logistics by it. By the time you get a job, you'll end up using less than 1 % of what you studied. The same with every field.
I'm studying Geomatics engineering. I'm from the Dominican Republic and I would like to share knowledge with people who study this major If you study Geomatics please add me to your skypw joel.rodriguez40 skype name
