ISPRS SC Sri Lanka – Sabaragamuwa University (ISPRS SC SLS) Student Chapter

The ISPRS SC Sri Lanka – Sabaragamuwa University Student Chapter is proud to be the founding chapter of ISPRS SC activities in the country. Initiated by a dedicated group of alumni and students from the Faculty of Geomatics—the only institution in Sri Lanka offering a specialized science degree in Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing, and GIS—the chapter was established in response to the growing national need for a unified geospatial platform.

Our mission is to connect students, early-career professionals, and researchers to the global geospatial science community. By promoting collaboration, knowledge-sharing, and professional development, the chapter aims to empower the next generation of spatial science leaders and enhance Sri Lanka’s contribution to global geospatial innovation.

We serve as a collaborative hub for academic and professional exchange, keeping members engaged with the latest advancements in geospatial technologies. Key initiatives include an online guest lecture series, virtual meetups, hands-on training sessions, student competitions, and summer schools on photogrammetry and remote sensing applications.

Our objectives are to:

·        Foster global engagement and networking

·        Encourage science-based decision-making.

·        Inspire innovation and sustainability.

·        Enhance career development opportunities.

·        Build a sustainable and impactful chapter presence.

Through these efforts, we aim to bridge the gap between academia and industry, advance geospatial capabilities in Sri Lanka, and contribute to sustainable development through scientifically informed solutions.
