Geomatics pertains to the technology dealing with the character and structure of spatial and non-spatial information. Methods of data acquisition, analogue and digital data capture, organisation, classification and qualification, analysis, management, display and dissemination, as well as the infrastructure necessary for the optimal use of the information, are various elements of Geomatics. Applications of Geomatics are mainly oriented to the real-world problems of management of natural and man-made environment and of the objects related to it.Geomatics is a synergism of various disciplines. It includes spatial information systems, computerised databases, computer graphics, cartography, statistics, remote sensing etc. Its applications would encompass the fields of natural resources management, resources planning and decision making, facilities management, automated mapping, marketing and retailing etc.
