Details

The Bachelor of Geomatics at TUT trains students in land surveying, geographic information systems (GIS), photogrammetry, remote sensing, and spatial data management — disciplines essential to South Africa's infrastructure development, land reform, and urban planning programmes. Students learn to measure, map, and analyse the physical environment using advanced instruments and software, producing spatial data used by engineers, planners, and government. The programme is accredited toward professional registration with PLATO (Professional Land Surveyors' Council) and opens career paths in mining, engineering, mapping, and the property sector. South Africa's land reform agenda and infrastructure investment create sustained demand for geomatics professionals.
