Professor Edvaldo Simões da Fonseca Junior
He holds a degree in Cartographic Engineering from the University of the State of Rio de Janeiro (1985), a Master's Degree in Transport Engineering from the Polytechnic School of the University of São Paulo (1996) and a PhD in Transportation Engineering from the University of Nottingham Polytechnic at USP (2002), with an internship at the University of Calgary - Canada (1999-2000).
​
He is currently a Ph.D. 2 professor in the Department of Transport Engineering at the Polytechnic School of USP. In the area of ​​research, he has extensive experience in the area of ​​Geodesy, working mainly in the following subjects: GNSS, positioning by satellites, geodetic networks, stations of continuous monitoring, autonomous navigation, vehicle control and monitoring of structures with geodetic instruments.
Participates in the orientation of doctoral students, master's degree, scientific initiation and also guides high school students of public schools in a project of Pre-Scientific Initiation. In the area of ​​education has sought to adopt modern teaching techniques to deal with the needs of new students. Develops, along with the discipline monitors, the improvement and modernization of the lesson material and the conversion of the handouts to the digital format adapted for tablets.
​
In the extension area he coordinates a project that aims to recover and enhance the technical collection of topography and geodesy of the LTG - Topography and Geodesy Laboratory of the Polytechnic School of USP. The project aims to identify, describe, catalog, maintain and recover the equipment that is part of the collection so that they can tell the history of the laboratory and the Polytechnic School itself. Part of the collection will be used in a timely manner to spark interest in the sciences and engineering of students at different levels of training.
