Abstract

Civil engineers, as well as other engineering careers, are facing new challenges in their professions due to new technologies and market forces that have been redefining engineer’s roles toward a new productive vision (ASCE, American Society of Civil Engineers in The vision for civil engineering in 2025. Reston, Virginia) [1]. As one of the oldest civil engineering related activity and to this day an indispensable tool for any civil engineering work, Geomatics Engineering shares the same concerns, especially when related to the synergy between Geomatics and Civil Engineering. As all technical segments, Geomatics has been making important technological advances over the years, incorporating new instruments, new technologies, and new working methods that must be understood by civil engineers so that both continue to develop complementarily and work together seamlessly. Considering this, the present article discusses new technologies available in Geomatics and their applications in civil engineering projects and the level of teaching that must be passed on to civil engineers so that both can work together making efficient use of the new technologies at their disposal.
