Geomatics students solve practical real-world problems by gathering, processing and analyzing spatial information from a diverse range of sources.
Geomatics technologists work outdoors where they measure forest boundaries, streams, lakes, property lines and building locations, and gain the skills to make a detailed map of your work.
Geomatics (or Geotechnology) has been identified as one of the three most important emerging fields in worldwide labour markets. Graduates are in demand in a variety of industries, including land surveying firms, energy and mining companies, engineering consulting firms and many more!
