On 16 August 2022, thirty secondary school students joined PolyU Summer Programme held by Department of Land Surveying and Geo-Informatics (LSGI) at Geomatics Computing Laboratory of PolyU LSGI. The Programme is designed to give secondary school students a taste of various PolyU disciplines, and to better prepare them for their future academic pursuits.
This programme was held online for the last 2 years. This year, we are delighted that we can arrange a face-to-face one to meet and communicate with all participants, so as to give them a better understanding on our discipline and areas of application. On behalf of LSGI, Dr Sissi Chen, Teaching Fellow and Deputy Programme Leader of LSGI’s BSc programme, welcomed the participants and shared the Digital Roadmap of Hong Kong. Her talk also covered the introduction of Geographic Information System (GIS) and different spatial applications which are followed by a hands-on CSDi & GIS workshop. Students can experience how to analyze different geo-spatial data to meet the social needs.
Last but not the least, students visited our laboratories to understand the equipment and technologies of LSGI as well as our profession. Certificates were presented to participants for completion of programme by Dr Xiaolin Zhu, Associate Professor and Programme Leader of our BSc programme, at the end of programme.
