The Institute of Geomatics (IG) is a public consortium

The Institute's mission is the promotion and development of Geomatics, through applied research and teaching, to the benefit of society.
We take Geomatics to mean the disciplinary set
of sciences and technologies that deal with the study, acquisition, storage,
organization, analysis, dissemination, management and use of
geographically-referenced spatial information. Geomatic disciplines include, among
others, cartography, photogrammetry, remote sensing, sensor calibration and orientation, geodesy, topography,
geographic information systems, civil engineering, deformation measurement and geomatic engineering.
