Across Australia’s tertiary and VET sectors, educators are modernising their approach to spatial learning. Many are now integrating RTK GNSS field training into their courses to prepare students for real-world work in surveying, civil construction, and environmental science.
In this Mangoesmapping webinar — Emlid in Education: How Universities & TAFEs Are Teaching Precision GNSS Skills — speakers demonstrated how Emlid receivers and software help students collect centimetre-accurate spatial data. The session explores how these tools connect classroom learning with field projects and help create industry-ready graduates.
🧭 What the Webinar Covered
During this one-hour session, participants learned:
- How Emlid GNSS supports spatial training in tertiary and VET education
- Ways to integrate RTK workflows into Certificate III/IV and Diploma programs
- Comparisons between Emlid systems, handheld GPS, and mobile mapping tools
- How to teach cultural heritage mapping using Emlid Reach receivers
- Case studies from CQ University and TAFE NSW
🎤 Featured Speakers
🎓 Nathan English — Associate Professor in Environmental Science, CQ University
Nathan specialises in field-based environmental science teaching. His students use Emlid RTK GNSS to map coastal elevation profiles on Woppa (Great Keppel Island) during environmental monitoring field schools.
“We prepare students to step straight into industry and research roles with skills they’ve already used in the field.”
🎓 Nick Buzza — Spatial Mapping Coordinator, TAFE NSW & Yorta Yorta Nation Aboriginal Corporation
Nick develops and delivers Certificate III, IV, and Diploma units in Spatial Information Services. He integrates Emlid GNSS into his courses for high-accuracy data collection, mapping, and Indigenous cultural heritage projects.

🎓 Shaping the Future of Spatial Education
This webinar demonstrates how accessible, all-band GNSS solutions such as the Emlid Reach series are transforming how we teach measurement science and field-based mapping.
By integrating these tools into coursework, institutions can enhance hands-on learning, improve spatial literacy, and graduate students who are confident using industry-relevant tools.
