The HND Topography program trains students in modern surveying, leveling, GPS, remote sensing and mapping — preparing them for roles in land surveying, cartography, cadastral work and GIS-assisted mapping.
Topography at AIMT emphasises practical surveying, use of total stations, GNSS/GPS, photogrammetry and GIS tools. Students undertake field camps and produce maps and cadastral plans as part of hands-on learning.
Two-semester HND program with laboratory, mapping workshops and a field camp to develop professional topographic skills.
| First Semester | Credits |
|---|---|
| Surveying I: Principles & Levelling | 3 |
| Surveying Instruments & Measurements | 3 |
| Introduction to GPS & GNSS | 3 |
| Cartography Basics | 2 |
| Computer Aided Drafting (CAD) for Surveyors | 2 |
| Second Semester | Credits |
|---|---|
| Total Station & Topographic Practices | 3 |
| GNSS Advanced Applications | 3 |
| Photogrammetry & Remote Sensing | 3 |
| Cadastral Surveying & Land Law | 2 |
| Field Camp & Mapping Project | 3 |
Practical field sessions and a mapping project ensure students graduate with professional surveying skills ready for industry deployment.
The field camp was intense but invaluable — I can operate a total station and process GNSS data confidently.
