A relevância das técnicas topográficas e a atuação do geógrafo: considerações a partir da experiência de estágio profissional

Abstract

The study of Topography takes us back to past periods, given the concern of man in better understanding the parts of the earth's surface where they live. Thanks to technological advances, there was an improvement in techniques, which started to ensure greater efficiency and precision in topographic surveys. Given the characteristics of Topography, it is noted that there is proximity to the contents seen in Geography and, in this way, allows the establishment of dialogues and exchanges between these two areas of knowledge. Therefore, this work constitutes the report that describes the activities developed in the supervised professional internship carried out with the company JRG Topografia e Agrimmensura, from September to November 2020. With the main objective of monitoring and carrying out topographic surveys, through this internship it was possible to get in touch with a set of contents and definitions specifically linked to Topography, in addition to putting them into practice through monitoring and participation in a topographic service developed with an urban subdivision under construction in the municipality of Ituiutaba-MG. The internship is an important moment, as it allows the student to put into practice the knowledge learned during the undergraduate course. As a result, in addition to the experience of assembling and operating equipment and equipment to carry out different topographic surveys, it was possible to understand how this type of service is essential for the development of various works and skills related to the professional performance of the Geographer.
