Geodesy, cartography and geoinformatics at the CTU Prague : history, current developments and challenges
Zimova, Ruzena et al.
At the Czech Technical University in Prague, there is a long tradition of master degree courses in geodesy, geodetic surveying and cartography. Fast development of information technologies in recent decades affected the composition of study plans and led to innovative steps made in recent years. The paper summarizes the history of surveying education at the CTU Prague and presents current structure of the study of both traditional Geodesy and Cartography branch and newly installed Geoinformatics, where information technologies and computer science are combined with a background of geodetic and cartographic know-how. Harmonization of curricula, development of e-learning and necessity of attracting talented students are the challenges and plans to be considered for future.
