Keywords: Combination of virtual simulation and reality, Surveying and mapping, Innovative and practical, Teaching reform, Remarkable reform results
Abstract. Since the beginning of this century, mapping and geographic information technology has been deeply integrated with virtual reality, artificial intelligence and other technologies, the mapping industry has entered the "intelligent mapping era", how to train innovative and practical mapping talents is urgent. The teaching team takes the cultivation of innovative and practical talents in surveying and mapping as the core goal, and focuses closely on the cultivation of students' innovation ability and large (complex) project implementation ability. Relying on Guangxi Spatial Information and Mapping Virtual Simulation Experimental Teaching Center and Southern Mapping Virtual Simulation Teaching Platform, the team carries out teaching reform and practice. The team proposes the training mode of "one goal, two synergy, three integration", which will use VR/AR, GIS and other technologies to teach major projects and scientific research achievements through virtual simulation, and adopt online + offline methods to enhance students' innovative practical ability. Through scientific assessment and incentive mechanism, students' initiative and enthusiasm will be improved, thus solving the problem of difficulty in cultivating students' innovation and practice ability. After years of reform and practice, students' innovation and practical ability have been improved significantly, and they have won dozens of awards such as the silver prize of "Internet+" national competition, the second prize of "Challenge Cup" national competition, and the national mapping skills competition. The teaching reform methods have been well promoted.
