Immersive Learning in Teaching Geomatics for Engineering Students
Keywords:
Immersive Learning, Geomatics, SimulationAbstract
For good training in geomatics, the development of practical surveying skills is essential. However, high costs and logistical difficulties limit such activities. Immersive education can be an alternative, by enabling a simulation that allows prior preparation for practical or field training, with better use of time and resources. The work presented in this paper differs from others found in the literature by using immersive virtual reality to allow the manipulation of a total station. Two types of evaluations were carried out, with experts and students, which highlighted the feasibility and potential of this approach and brought insights into how to proceed with this project.
