About this course

["Geodesy and Geoinformatics(specialisation Geomatics) is anengineering and geosciencesubject based on mathematics and physics and a close affinity to computer science, environmental science, law, and social sciences. Typical questions include engineering and geodetic monitoring of structures, capturing and use of environmental information, guidance of machines and vehicles, and remote sensing and researching of the system Earth. For geodata captured by modern measurement technology, there are many applications, for example, in regional planning, for location-dependent mobile services and navigation systems.This wide variety of tasks requires thorough knowledge in individual disciplines that are encountered in the broad spectrum of subjects in the programme of Geodesy and Geoinformatics at Leibniz University Hannover. Building on the broad content of the Bachelor's degree, the Master's programme offers students the chance to study numerous specific fields at an advanced level and to specialise in certain disciplines. In particular, current aspects of research and their advanced applications on the basis of selected projects are at the heart of the Master's programme.Besides the specialisationGeomaticsbeing one optional track of the Master's programme in Geodesy and Geoinformatics, we also offer the specialisation inNavigation and Field Robotics(the teaching language is mostly English, but with mandatory German parts). It is intended to start a third specialisation,Remote Sensing and GIS, in winter semester 2025/26. Any specialisation has to be chosen at the beginning of the application process."]
