107 The department consists of appropriate laboratories equipped for teaching and research as well. The image-processing laboratory consists of the following sections: analog and digital photogrammetry. The analog section is equipped with analog stereoscopic plotting instrument (Wild B-8, A-8). The digital section has DMS softcopy photogrammetry and SOCOPH. Socoph is a digital softcopy photogrammetry software developed by our staff (Suparman, 1998). This software is based on a PC platform. A number of PC has been used for laboratory works of the student. The Internet Prospect The satellite technology used for earth observation has been developed substantially during last three decades. However, the data processing of those satellites has been seldom undertaken at remote server systems due to the lack of high performance’s data communication. If this available, the real time data processing will then becomes a reality. For Indonesia this mean that remote sensing subject within the ITB curriculum will play an important role to produce product such as disaster (e.g. fire, typhoon, flood caused by torrential rain, etc). With this possibility the dissemination of fire detection product provided for example, by NOAA to local fire fighting forces, NGO’s and broadcast media/press and research organization is not a real problem anymore. Related products using GIS technology such as fire’s early warning system can also be produced. The requirement to establish high performance network services for R&D was recognized at the APEC Symposium for Realizing the Information Society Field of R&D Activities in March 1996 as well as the APEC Test-bed Forum in June 1996. In result, some volunteers agreed to work towards setting up Asia-Pacific Advanced Network (APAN). In this regard, ITB was decided as an APAN node. As an APAN node, ITB is responsible for disseminating product for quick domestic distribution. In case of disaster product the local disaster information reported by the end users to the APAN nodes can be published through the www. This may consider the prospect of Internet as an integral part of the whole learning process. The APAN Network Topology is shown in Figure I. 4, CONCLUSION Since its beginning the surveying education program in ITB has been developed gradually. The ultimate goal of achieving a Bachelor of Engineering in Spatial Information is targeted for vision 2007 in ITB’s effort to be a Center of Excellence in spatial information education and training. The spatial information scientist will become an important component of the total spatial profession in the next decade. Figure 1. The APAN Network Topology.
