Geomatics

Geomatics is the science of collecting, storing, analysing and visualising spatially localised data. Geomatics is intertwined with and related to a number of disciplines, such as geodesy, photogrammetry, remote sensing, database and geographic information systems (GIS), cartography and others. It is a combination of broad theoretical foundations and practical activities using the latest technology. More detailed information and instructions for submitting an application form are available on the Faculty's website section Admissions

You will learn the principles of all areas of geomatics and related disciplines mentioned above. You will be able to collect spatial data independently, using both classical geodetic methods and modern geodetic methods (laser scanning, GNSS, etc.) You will be able to store spatial data appropriately in optimal data models in a database environment and analyze them using modern GIS methods. At the same time, you will also learn how to visualise this data correctly by applying appropriate cartographic principles.

If you graduate with a master degree in Geomatics, you will be well qualified to work in the field of geodesy and cadastre, and you can deal with database and geographic information systems not only in private practice but also in the public sphere. Even during your studies, you can participate in Czech and European scientific projects (in the past, for example, OpenTransportNet, Peregrinus Silva Bohemica or DataBio). After completing your studies, gaining the required experience and passing the professional examination, you can obtain a licence to verify the results of surveying activities – Officially Authorised Survey Engineer (ÚOZI). If you are interested in geomatics, you can continue your studies in the Geomatics PhD programme
