CEGR 110 - Geospatial Technologies in Civil Engineering

2 Credits
Two lecture hours. two lab hours.

The course provides students with comprehensive knowledge and understanding of geospatial technologies/sciences and their applications in Civil Engineering. It will highlight surveying, geographic information systems (GIS), differential global positioning system (DGPS), remote sensing, and spectroradiometer concepts, principles, and techniques for developing appropriate skills for their integration and applications in civil engineering. Students will actively participate in data acquisition, mapping, surveying, site geometries, and geology. Lectures include geospatial features, attributes, image exploitation, and relational database. Labs include training in ArcGIS/ArcView, ENVI, GeoMedia Suite, TerraSync and Pathfinder Office software. Differential correction of field data, analyses, syntheses and applications will be provided Term project, with oral presentation and written report will form part of this course.

Prerequisite(s) None.
