  1. GPS / GIS & Photogrammetry Online “Connecting Albertans”: URISA Alberta Conference 1999 Jeff Thurston Department of Renewable Resources University of Alberta Edmonton, Canada T6G 2H1

  2. What we are doing? theory and applications of surveying theory and applications of GPS theory and application of photogrammetry (aerial imaging) Theory and application ofgeographic information systems (GIS)

  3. Where are we doing this? • Undergraduate forestry program • Environmental Resource Management Program, Extension • GPS / GIS Online International (Fall 1999) GPS Working Group http://rrgpsgis.forsci.ualberta.ca

  11. Other Applications Faculty of Agriculture, Forestry,and Home Economics • agricultural land management • cropping systems rotation • precision farming • hydrological delineation • buffer distancing • soil fertility • utilities and corridors • economic inputs / outputs • transportation

  12. Our Approach • allows students anywhere access to GPS / GIS and photogrammetry theory • recognizes and understands the importance of integrated technologies (real applications) • capitalizes upon open architectures (efficiency) • recognizes educational materials developed on high speed networks are delivered on low speed dialups (access)

  13. Where are we going? • increased use of JAVA • developing databases of interactive “scenarios” • online visualization & modeling • use of real-time data and live applications • remote location real-time labs • online stereoscopy • multi - language GPS/GIS/photogrammetry modules

  14. The Future / Needs • increased education and training in multiple and integrated technology applications and use • use and development of interactive technologies for delivery anywhere and anytime • innovative and unique partnerships between industry, government and institutions to acquire technologies, develop, and distribute educational materials • research and development to meet new applications and emerging new “geo-technologies”.
