DESIGN AND IMPLEMENTATION OF THE INTEGRATED PRACTICUM OF GEOMATICS ACCORDING TO ENGINEERING EDUCATION ACCREDITATION

Abstract

Engineering education accreditation is a new engineering education model promoted by the Ministry of Education in China, which aims to cultivate the ability of students to solve complex engineering problems. A course named “integrated practicum of Geomatics” (IPG) was innovatively designed for the undergraduate specialty of Geomatics. This course involves in the current advanced technologies to lay a solid foundation for students to engage in Geomatics through aerial photography technology design, unmanned aerial vehicle photography, control point selection, GNSS-RTK control point survey, photo interpretation and sketch, 3D (DEM, DOM, and DLG) product production, inputting 3D products into the Geodatabase, and GIS application software development. This paper expounds on the objectives, contents, evaluation methods, and continuous improvement of IPG.
