“Modern Geodetic Technologies: From GNSS to 3D Scanning”

On March 10, in honor of the Day of Land Management, Geodesy and Cartography of the Republic of Kazakhstan, the Department of Cartography and Geoinformatics organized a professional event titled “Modern Geodetic Technologies: From GNSS to 3D Scanning.”

The event was attended by faculty members, master’s students, and undergraduate students, who had the opportunity to familiarize themselves with modern technologies in the field of geodesy. As part of the program, an exhibition and demonstration of modern geodetic equipment from leading manufacturers were organized, showcasing the functionality of the instruments and their practical applications.

A practice-oriented seminar-training on the application of GNSS technologies and 3D scanning in real projects was also conducted. Participants were introduced to the capabilities of modern geodetic instruments through practical demonstrations. In addition, an interactive Q&A session with industry experts was held, where students received answers to their questions.

The speakers included representatives of GEO Master A LLP - Head of Sales Department Alexander Shchekuteev and Sales Manager Shyngys Moldamusayev, who presented comprehensive information about modern geodetic technologies and equipment. In addition, representatives of Leica Geosystems Kazakhstan LLP -  Sales and Technical Support Managers Alexander Kim and Sergey Starikov — introduced the technical capabilities of modern geodetic instruments and explained their practical applications.

During the event, the important role of geodesy, cartography, and geoinformatics in sustainable development was emphasized. The effective use of spatial data and geodetic technologies contributes to the implementation of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), particularly SDG 9 – Industry, Innovation and Infrastructure, SDG 11 – Sustainable Cities and Communities, and SDG 13 – Climate Action.

The Department of Cartography and Geoinformatics expresses its sincere gratitude to the specialists of GEO Master A LLP and Leica Geosystems Kazakhstan LLP for their participation and for sharing their professional experience. At the end of the event, commemorative gifts were presented to the invited guests on behalf of the department.

This meeting helped enhance students’ professional knowledge and provided them with valuable insights into modern technologies in the field of geodesy.
