Geomatics is a multidisciplinary science branch connected with many different subjects such as surveying, geoinformatics or remote sensing. Also cartography and spatial data visualisation represent a important part of geomatics. What is the current position of cartography among above mentioned sciences in geomatics curriculum? It is necessary to realize that cartography transforms complicated s...

The use of "geospatial engineering" to replace "geomatics" is also deliberative. Geomatics is widely used by surveying disciplines. For example, most schools/departments of surveying of universities in Australia, Britain, Canada and US have been changed to schools /departments of geomatics (or geomatic engineering). However, other communities in geoinformation seem to be reluctant to adopt this...

Looking back at the last four decades, the technologies that have been developed for Earth observation and mapping can shed a light on the technologies that are trending today and on their challenges. Forty years ago, the first digital pictures decided the fate of remote sensing, photogrammetric engineering, GIS, or, for short: of geomatics. This sudden wave of volumes of data triggered the res...

This paper attempts to define a name for an area of science and technology that encompasses the acquisition, processing application spatial data in mining industry. A comparative study evolution exchange methods between Geographic Information Systems (GISs) General Mining Planning (GMP) software is carried out problem it. Subsequent modifications acronym GIS towards specialisation its are then ...

The Technology Kits are intended to summarize the results and the productivity of GEOIDE-funded research during Phase I of the Networks funding cycle (1998-2002). In addition, it is hoped that these documents will provide, at least for the short term, a view of up-to-date research in several key areas. Each of the 9 kits brings together research results from several projects. The content of the...

Marginalized groups have been defined as groups that have been peripheralized from the center of society. Increasing nursing knowledge of marginalized groups and the dynamics of population diversity will enable nurses to better recognize shifting health patterns, plan for utilization of health services, and determine ethnic and cultural differences that exist in marginalized populations. The au...
