测绘学这个词是什么意思?

通过收购和测量数据确定测量师。但它的管理和策练怎么样？我们今天有机会影响我们的期货。所以我们更多的人需要做到这一点，RICS的地理专业集团董事会戈登约翰斯顿争论。

英国最新的200米南极科学研究船舶即将委托，已收到公众民意调查中的姓名建议。获奖的提交可能不会根据英国政府“未能反映科学和努力”，即研究船只旨在从事。就个人而言，RRS“阿姨”和RRS“Usain船”是我的最爱，但也不太可能被接受。

What about Data Storage?

那么名字是什么？地质学是包含通过新信息系统和可视化技术的空间数据的衡量和传统测量的概念的单词。从20世纪80年代后期开始的术语预测，空间信息将对数据的许多用户和消费者变得重要而重要。这些信息是通过那么GIS的相对较新的技术提供的。

For many generations surveyors and other members of geomatics groups have been identified with the acquisition, measurement and collection of data; but far less so in respect of the data storage, access and management. On the tightrope of data gravity, the weight of data is shifting away from the data collection end towards data management. Those alert to this have already embraced the challenge and an initiative such as Survey4BIM can act as a vehicle for significant change. Thus it is encouraging to see the wider community recognising the importance of our data.

地图和地理图书馆尚未完成一系列致力于地理空间数据的主题，其管理，策划和保存。让我们希望我们的数据保持相关性，可访问，并有助于开发新技术通过应用，媒体和互联网创造了更好地了解我们的地理空间未来。这些概念在这本杂志中的其他地方播出。

有机会影响

最近的贸易和行业事件我参加过重新执行我的观点，以至于以任何方式促进我们的职业发展和利益的方式是重要的。我们是一个不断变化的世界，它需要许多声音和想法来制定对大多数人有益的变化。并非我们所有人都可以花时间写一篇文章，在会议上出席或发布主题推文以产生大量印象。但是，有各种影响力的机会，更好地参与，例如关于RICS LinkedIn页面的发布评论，问题和想法。

The RICS, as an international organization, offers each of us an opportunity to engage and influence our futures on a personal level and on a wider more universal level through it’s standing at the international level. The FIG Working Week (2-6 May) is a prime example of our engagement, contribution and influence on surveying policy at the global level.

如今的政策制定者通常会咨询重要性重要事项，这通常可以包括公众。当我们比较不同国家的基础设施发展速率时，这种过程代表的延迟的担忧可能是有效的。英国的土地登记处，本月其他地方的一篇文章的主题，遭到审查，因为评估是对政府战略紧缩和支出审查的一部分的价值。Let’s hope the broader picture is maintained and it may be of interest to stakeholders that various nations are actively assessing how best to develop their land management, or cadastre, for coastal seas and marine areas as these areas become more important for our security of food, transport and represent limits of sovereignty. Managing our areas on land or sea requires data and as an asset, the data must also be managed, or did I mention that? Perhaps a public poll on the title (pun intended!) of the Land Registry will be required if it were to also manage our sea and ocean areas.

Finally, spare a thought for the London Marathon runner from Israel who was last to start. He followed his computer-based directions which mapped his route to the finish line instead of the start on Blackheath. He had to re-plan his route and dash across London to the start.
