GEOMATICS ENGINEERING DEFINITION & OVERVIEW |
 Geomatics engineering: "Geomatics engineering is a rapidly developing discipline that focuses on spatial information (i.e. information that has a location). The location is the primary factor used to integrate a very wide range of data for viewing and analysis. Geomatics engineers apply engineering principles to spatial information and implement relational data structures involving measurement sciences, thus using geomatics and acting as spatial information engineers. Geomatics engineers manage local, regional, national and global spatial data infrastructures.
Geomatics is a new term incorporating the older field of surveying along with many other aspects of spatial data management. Following the advanced developments in digital data processing, the nature of the tasks required of the professional land surveyor has evolved and the term surveying alone does not any more describe the whole range of tasks that the profession deals with. As our societies become more complex, information with a spatial position associated with it becomes more critical to decision-making, both from a personal and a business perspective, and also from a community and a large-scale governmental viewpoint.
Therefore, the geomatics engineer can be involved in an extremely wide variety of information gathering activities and applications. Geomatics engineers design, develop, and operate systems for collecting and analyzing spatial information about the land, the oceans, natural resources, and manmade features. Geomatics engineering applications include integrating science and technology from both new and traditional disciplines:
- Geodesy, also called geodetic science
- Cartography, computer and digital mapping
- Remote sensing, photogrammetry (photogrammetric mapping)
- Land information systems (LIS)
- Real Property boundary determination
- Hydrography, navigation, topographic and spatial computing
- Surveying (including land, cadastral, aerial, mining and engineering surveying)
- Construction layout, route design
- Image understanding and computer aided visualization
- Computer-aided design (CAD)
- Geographic information systems (GIS) and geographic information science
- Global Positioning System (GPS) or Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS)
- Applications programming
- Project management" Reference

| GEOMATICS ENGINEERING TECHNICAL MANUAL TRANSLATION |
 Manuals, almost by definition, are technical in nature as they
invariably supply instructions and technical specifications that apply to a particular subject, field, business or profession.
Technical manuals are usually intended for distribution to foreign markets. Foreign countries imply changes to technical specifications (electrical standards,
building codes, to name a few) not to mention the applicability of legal disclaimers, safety requirements, local usage customs, etc.
We can assist you with the localization of technical manuals and accompanying specifications. |

| RÉSUMÉ TRANSLATION SERVICES |
 When you apply for work put your best foot forward and make a lasting
impression with a résumé that has been translated by an expert who is fluent in your native language and is familiar with the technical language of the field you work in.
Don't settle for anything but the best and allow us to present you in the best possible light. |
| TECHNICAL PROOFREADING SERVICE |
 Our proofreading service consists of reviewing any text for errors – hard copy (written documentation) or electronic (e.g. websites, MSWord files, PowerPoint files).The types of errors we look for include: missing words; typos; spelling mistakes; formatting errors; missing or bad punctuation; etc.
The proofreading service is combined with light copy-editing: checking for grammar; improper language usage; run-on sentences; consistency issues; etc. Our objective is to improve the formatting, style and accuracy of your written material without changing the content. |
