What is Geomatics Engineering @UTM?

Geomatics Engineering is an academic discipline that concerns on acquisition, analysis, and interpretation of mainly geospatial data, relating to the Earth, its physical features and the built environment. It comprises tools and techniques of measuring, managing, presenting and analyzing geospatial data from diverse sources with well-defined characteristics on accuracy and continuity; and in the form of digital format. Geospatial data are obtained from a wide range of technologically advanced tools like total station, Global Positioning System (GPS) / Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) equipment, digital aerial imagery (form both satellite and airborne), Terrestrial Laser Scanner (TLS), Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV), echo sounder and Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR). These data are processed and manipulated by using a computer and the latest software. Also included in the area of geospatial are computer-based Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and remote sensing for monitoring the environment. is an academic discipline that concerns on acquisition, analysis, and interpretation of mainly geospatial data, relating to the Earth, its physical features and the built environment.

Apa itu Kejuruteraan Geomatik @UTM?

Kejuruteraan Geomatik merupakan satu disiplin akademik yang berkaitan dengan pengumpulan,  analisis, dan pentafsiran data geospatial, berkaitan dengan bumi, ciri-ciri fizikalnya dan alam persekitaran. Ia merangkumi peralatan-peralatan dan teknik-teknik pengukuran, pengurusan, persembahan  dan analisis data geospatial daripada pelbagai sumber dengan ciri-ciri khusus secara tepat dan menyeluruh; dalam bentuk digital. Data geospatial boleh diperolehi daripada pelbagai peralatan teknologi baru yang canggih seperti Global Positioning System (GPS) / Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS), imej penderiaan jauh digital (daripada satelit dan pesawat udara), Terrestrial Laser Scanner (TLS), Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV), sistem pemerum gema and Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR). Data-data tersebut diproses dan dimanipulasi dengan menggunakan komputer dan perisian terkini. Ia turut termasuk Sistem Maklumat Geografi (GIS) yang berasaskan komputer dan sistem penderiaan jauh untuk memantau perubahan alam sekitar.

About kelvin

Kelvin Kang Wee, TANG received his B. Eng. (Geomatic) (Hons.) from Universiti Teknologi Malaysia (UTM) and Master of Remote Sensing & GIS from Universiti Putra Malaysia (UPM). He completed his Ph.D (Hydrography) from UTM in April 2021. Apparently, he is a Senior Lecturer in the Faculty of Built Environment and Surveying, UTM. His area of interest is in marine positioning, hydrographic surveying, hydrospatial management and imagery-derive bathymetry using satellite remote sensing approach.
