Nowadays, Department of Cartography plans to implant the 
"Program of Human Resources Formation in Cartographic Sciences" 
that will act at technician level (Cartography and 
Photogrammetry), undergraduation level (continuity of CECart 
and its strengthening) and graduation level ("late sensu" and 
"stricto sensu”). The viability of this program passes by the 
wage question and so by the government sensibility to implement 
an effient educational policy that really conserves the experts 
in the university. Perhaps, in! Brazil, more important than ‘the | 
late question is the cultural one when considering the 
researcher's permanence at inland cities because of lack of 
"cultural life". 
5. CONCLUSION 
P&RS represents a very important contribuition to Brazilian 
Cartography and other areas. The number of companies and 
engineers acting in airsurvey and P&RS attend to national 
requirements at least for the time being. However, the 
scientific and technological development imposes continuity of 
investments in human resources at under and graduation levels. 
It urges to begin to prepare technicians in P&RS in Brazil. 
At the new phase that is in the beginning by now at DCart these 
questions should be discussed with the brazilian cartographic 
community with the eyes and the ears alert to international 
community. 
New projects should emerge in order to the conduct philosophy 
of DCart can be continued that means to put the students in 
direct contact with real work conditions.
