Doctoral programmes

Teaching is modern and underpinned by science, practice and current technology

  • The Department has two lecture halls, a specialised geoinformatics computer room, a specialised geodetic classroom, a laboratory for working with analogue and digital spatial data and a former biometric laboratory.
  • The Department is fully equipped to collect, process and analyse spatial data and develop precision forestry systems and forest health survey methods, especially non-contact methods.
  • Our basic equipment comprises a fleet of drones with thermal and multispectral imaging systems, complete geodetic stations, GPS and laser scanning systems and sets of instruments for dendrometric measurements (e.g. diameter gauges, range finders, altimeters and planimeters).
Selection of instrumentation available:
  • DJI Mavic 3E and DJI Matrice 600 Pro (hexacopter) with Flir tau2 thermal cameras
  • senseFly eBee Plus fixed-wing drone with a Parrot Sequoia multispectral camera
