Learning outcomes
|
The aim of the course is to acquaint students with basic issues and principles of geographic information systems, especially principles of spatial modelling, basic data models and spatial analyses to be able to understand the benefits and abilities of GIS and to be able to use them as a decision support system. Students will be able to solve partial spatially oriented problems, they will: - understand the differences between basic data models and; - understand the principles of spatial analyses and; - know how to select an appropriate data model and apply adequate methods of spatial analyses when solving selected spatially oriented problems. Students will obtain knowledge how to interpret obtained results, visualise them and how to defend the selected methods in discussions.
Students will be familiar with remote sensing and digital image processing. Students will be able to apply selected technology in practice.
