Description
This unit describes the knowledge and skills required to provide geospatial support to Defence operations and training. This includes identifying the geospatial resources available for the performance requirement, and identifying and operating the resources for the geospatial products required.In the context of this unit, an understanding of Defence operations or training being conducted and the production of the geospatial products to support the operation or training are required.This unit was developed in a Defence environment but may be relevant to others who work in the geospatial field.Those undertaking this unit would work independently, or as part of a team, with minimal supervision, while performing complex tasks, including complex problem solving, in a limited range of contexts. They would use discretion and judgement and take responsibility for the quality of their outputs.Licensing/Regulatory InformationNo licensing, legislative or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication.
