How does your smartphone or GPS device know where you are? It\u2019s \u201cgeospatial\u201d technology that uses satellites and cell signals for mapping apps and location services, but this technology does much more than provide convenience and social media interconnectivity.<\/p>\n

The technology is creating new opportunities in many fields. Governmental agencies, private corporations and consulting firms are using geographic information systems (GIS), the global positioning system (GPS), satellite-based remote sensing and computer simulations to acquire, manipulate and store geographic information for analysis and decision-making.<\/p>\n

With its diverse applications across sectors, employment within the GIS industry is anticipated to experience continuous growth in the coming years.<\/p>\n

According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, the jobs outlook for geographers is anticipated to grow 29 percent from 2012-2020. Jobs for cartographers and photo grammetrists are forecasted to increase 20 percent and surveying and mapping technician jobs will grow 14 percent for the same period.<\/p>\n

Recognizing this demand and the opportunity that existed to leverage expertise of newly hired faculty within the Auburn\u2019s multidisciplinary Climate-Human-Earth System Sciences (CHESS) cluster, the School of Forestry and Wildlife Sciences tapped Assistant Professors Susan Pan and Sanjiv Kumar to lead the development of a new geospatial and environmental informatics, or GSEI, degree program with other faculty within the colleges of Agriculture, Sciences and Mathematics, Engineering and Business.<\/p>\n

The Natural Resource Management, Indian Agricultural Research Institute and the Meteorological Department are major recruiters in this field. Every state has its own administrative units like municipalities, town & country planning, urban authorities, Jal Nigam, PWD, technical and research institutions (for teaching and R&D work), which require qualified personnel from the world of geoinformatics.<\/p>\n

There is a demand for such professionals even in software industries like ESRI, AUTOCAD, Autodesk, ERDAS, Bentley, Google, Microsoft, and private organizations like RMSI, Tata Consultancy, Eicher, etc<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
