🎉 LSGS學生實習：「上天下海」測量之旅！ 🛰️🚢

土木工程拓展署（CEDD）最新的《暑期實習生日記》見到我們學生的身影！土地測量及地理空間科學學系（LSGS）三年級同學 Jarmy 早前順利完成了在土木工程拓展署測量部的暑期實習！🌟
在為期 8 星期的旅程中，Jarmy 體驗了真正「上天下海」的工作，親手操控航空測量無人機及遙控測量船採集地理空間數據！📊 實習尾聲，土木工程拓展署署長方學誠先生更親自與一眾實習生交流，勉勵大家投身工程及測量專業。💪🔥
這次難得的實戰經驗讓 Jarmy 成功掌握多項創新測量科技。恭喜 Jarmy 順利完成實習，並在政府部門展現出本系學生的專業實力，期待他在新學年繼續取得突破！🚀✨

🎉 LSGS Internship Sharing: ‘Land, Sea & Air’ Adventure! 🛰️🚢

Excited to see our Year 3 student, Jarmy, featured in the latest "Summer Intern Diary" by the Civil Engineering and Development Department (CEDD)! 🌟
During his 8-week summer internship with the Surveying Division, Jarmy dove straight into a true "land, sea, and air" surveying journey, operating cutting-edge aerial surveying drones and remote-controlled surveying vessels to capture vital geospatial data. 📊 The experience wrapped up with an inspiring exchange session with Mr. Michael FONG, Director of CEDD, who encouraged the interns to become future infrastructure leaders. 💪🔥
Congratulations to Jarmy on the successful completion of his internship and for showcasing the tech-driven capabilities of LSGS students in the public sector! We can't wait to see his next breakthrough this academic year! 🚀✨

🚀 Taking Geospatial Science Beyond Earth! 🌕🔴

Ever wondered how spacecraft land safely on the uncharted terrains of the Moon and Mars? The answer lies in the cutting-edge expertise of PolyU’s Department of Land Surveying and Geospatial Science (LSGS)!

Led by Prof. WU Bo, our LSGS researchers are proving that land surveying and geospatial science aren't just for Earth—they are essential for deep space exploration.

By pushing the boundaries of planetary remote sensing, the LSGS team has developed an advanced 3D mapping model combined with AI technology to generate ultra-high-resolution topographic maps. This technology overcomes extreme space conditions—like the thin Martian atmosphere and harsh lighting at the lunar south pole—to find the absolute safest landing spots for spacecraft.

🌟 LSGS Making History in Space:
This groundbreaking LSGS-driven innovation has directly supported the Nation's historic space missions, including Chang’e-3 (嫦娥三號), Chang’e-4, Chang’e-5, and the Tianwen-1 (天問一號) Mars mission!

During the Chang’e-4 mission, the 3D mapping technologies pioneered by LSGS identified rough terrain and helped adjust the descent orbit, making the world’s first-ever successful landing on the far side of the Moon possible! 🛰️ It also safely guided the Zhurong rover (祝融號) to the surface of Mars.

Recognized by the China National Space Administration and the China Academy of Space Technology, our Department of Land Surveying and Geospatial Science is incredibly proud to continue guiding the journey to the stars. ✨
