Geomatics Engineering is a multidisciplinary field that involves the acquisition, processing, analysis, and management of spatial data. It involves the use of various technologies such as surveying, remote sensing, GIS, and GPS to gather and analyze data about the Earth's physical and social features.

The GATE Geomatics Engineering exam covers a wide range of topics including surveying, remote sensing, geographic information systems (GIS), digital image processing, photogrammetry, and global positioning systems (GPS).

The GATE Geomatics Engineering exam is a computer-based test that consists of multiple-choice questions (MCQs) and numerical answer type questions (NATs). The exam duration is 3 hours, and the total number of questions is 65.

The marking scheme for the GATE Geomatics Engineering exam is different for MCQs and NATs. MCQs carry 1 or 2 marks each, and for every wrong answer, 1/3 mark is deducted for 1 mark questions, and 2/3 mark is deducted for 2 mark questions. NATs carry 1 or 2 marks each, and there is no negative marking for incorrect answers.

Some good resources for preparing for the GATE Geomatics Engineering exam include standard textbooks, online lectures, previous year question papers, and mock tests.

Geomatics Engineers can work in a wide range of industries such as surveying and mapping, urban planning, environmental management, natural resource management, and disaster management. They can also work in government agencies, research organizations, and private consulting firms.
