Focus and Scope
The Journal publishes peer-reviewed original papers within the broad discipline of Geomatics (including surveying techniques, technology, and applications; mine surveying; hydrographic surveying; cadastral systems; land tenure; development planning; GIS; photogrammetry; and remote sensing). The journal is designed to serve as a reference source and an archive of advancements in these disciplines. The focus is on papers relevant to the South African and African context but is not restricted to these areas. This includes both technological developments and social adaptations appropriate to the needs of Geomatics in Africa.
