Surveying, also known as Geomatics, is a subdivision of geodesy (science that determines the form and size of our planet) also develops all kinds of maps. Surveying seeks to determine the form, size, and position of smaller portions of lands such as solar properties. This discipline requires mathematical preparation and a science concentration, mainly, physical, optical, and astronomy. In practical terms, Surveying is practical application of the geometry of space and surface representation.Read More »
