This version first released with CPP Property Services Training Package Release 12.0. This unit supersedes and is equivalent to CPPSIS5031 Plan spatial data collection. |
Application
This unit specifies the skills and knowledge required to develop and document a spatial data collection plan that meets client specifications. It includes analysing project specifications and client instructions to evaluate and determine appropriate data acquisition and collection options. It also includes assessing the technical, financial, legal and resource implications of the project in order to select the preferred collection options.
This unit is suitable for skilled surveying technicians and skilled spatial information system (SIS) technicians who use a broad range of cognitive, technical and communication skills to select and apply methods and technologies to analyse information and provide solutions to sometimes complex surveying/spatial information problems.
The unit supports those who work in a surveying or spatial information services team in areas such town planning, civil construction, mining, engineering, health, agriculture and defence.
All work must be carried out to comply with workplace procedures, in accordance with relevant state/territory regulations that govern surveying work, as well as work health and safety (WHS) legislation and regulations that apply to the workplace.
Cadastral surveying must be undertaken under the supervision of a registered surveyor. Users must check with the relevant regulatory state/territory authority before delivery.
No licensing, legislative or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication.
