DTMA Training
DTMA Training equips engineers with practical skills to transform elevation data into efficient road designs. Participants learn to source and clean DTMs, perform terrain analyses including slope, aspect, hydrology, and landforms, design conceptual alignments, extract profiles and cross-sections, estimate earthworks, specify survey requirements, and produce defensible reports for preliminary road corridor projects, ensuring safer and more cost-effective outcomes.
