A group of eager students from Klein Collins High School (Spring, Texas) recently visited the Measurement Analytics Laboratory to learn about career opportunities in the geospatial sector, particularly about Remote Sensing applications. The students were excited to see how the MANTIS team transforms raw field data into practical products that help in areas such as agriculture, topographic mapping, and disaster management.
The learning didn't stop there. The very next day, Klein Collins students were part of a group of 39 students who took part in the SkillsUSA Texas Land Surveying Competition at Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi, hosted by the Conrad Blucher Institute. Our very own MANTIS student José Pilartes-Congo generously gave his time to volunteer at the event.
This year’s competition winners were:
1st Place: Dubiski Career High School
2nd Place: Klein Collins High School
3rd Place: YISD Career and Technical Center
