In future, each of the workstations will
be developed in respect to the available
resources. The photogrammetric workstation
is very simple because of a limited
photogrammetric equipment in the
Department. Presently, only the analogous
plotter is available. However, there is
possibility to extend the photogrammetric
workstation within the near future
research plans of the Department.
5. TRAINING OF THE STAFF
The process of staff training is very long
and expensive. This concerns not only the
basic post graduate MSc and PhD courses or
technical diploma courses but also the
short term courses to refresh or extend a
Staff knowledge on the new developments in
methodology, equipment and software.
Training of Zambian staff in the
210
Department of Surveying, UNZA is sponsored
by the external donors SIDA (Sweden) and
CICAT (the Netherlands).
Presently only two Zambian lecturers
assist the Department with teaching, after
the completion of the MSc overseas study
in fields of Cadastral Surveying and Land
Use Planning,Resources
Management, respectively.
Four other Zambian members are studying
PhD and MSc courses in fields of
Surveying, Geodesy and
Photogrammetry in Stockholm and London.
Temporary, four expatriate academic staff
from Europe, sponsored by SIDA and CICAT
are employed in the Department.
Two highly qualified Zambian technicians
with the Higher Nationa Diplomas obtained
in England and several years experience
in surveying and mapping also assist the
Department.
