SurReal: Surveying in Virtual Reality

Joe Fioti and Donovan Gaffney

Surveying has traditionally been a very physical activity, requiring extensive outdoor labs to teach students different procedures. This is a problem when physical contact is not possible., such as during a pandemic, or when outdoor activity is not possible, due to inclement weather. We created a virtual system to solve these problems using virtual reality, providing an immersive lab experience to allow students to work together in a virtual environment.
