Geospatial Technology for Construction

L&T EduTech introduces geospatial methods used to collect and interpret construction information. Surveying instruments, GNSS, remote sensing, photogrammetry and LiDAR connect with engineering applications. It suits learners who already understand basic surveying and construction and want to compare data-collection methods by accuracy, purpose and the decisions their outputs can support.

What you will learn

• Compare surveying and mapping methods.
• Explore GNSS, photogrammetry and LiDAR.
• Connect spatial data with construction applications.

Who this suits

Learners with basic civil-engineering knowledge, familiarity with surveying and mapping, and an understanding of construction practices, as required by the provider.

Before you enroll

Check the course’s jurisdiction, standards and assumed technical background before applying an example. These lessons support study and professional development; they do not authorize structural design or construction work. Use fictional projects for practice and distinguish a teaching model from a site-specific engineering decision.

Coursera offers paid enrollment or subscription access. Check the enrollment screen for assessment and certificate terms, trials and any financial-aid options. Provider access terms can change; review them before paying.

Put it into practice

Compare two survey methods for a fictional construction site. Specify the information needed, expected limitations and a check you would use before relying on the data.
