Introduction to Geomatics

This lecture introduces the fundamental concepts of geomatics, covering topics such as cartography, satellite localization, geodesy, and image processing. The course aims to provide students with a solid understanding of spatial data acquisition, modeling, management, and dissemination, emphasizing the importance of geomatics in civil engineering, environmental studies, and urban planning. Practical sessions involve using topometry tools, processing satellite images, and selecting data acquisition methods based on specific application requirements. The teaching approach focuses on mathematical principles, reliability, and precision in geomatics applications, with a balance between theoretical concepts and hands-on exercises.
