Research in the Geomatics Engineering Department covers the entire field of geodesy and geomatics. Most of the research is centered on four research groups, namely: the Surveying & Cadastre Laboratory, Geospatial Laboratory, Geo-Marin Laboratory, Geodesy & Geodynamics Laboratory and Geoinformatics Laboratory and is supported by the Center for Earth Studies Disaster and Climate Change (PSKBPI) -ITS.
