Course information

The course acquaints students with the functions of GIS in real Geoinformatics problems. Primarily laboratory-based with a few lectures, the course combines theoretical teaching with practical exercises. Students extend and enrich their undergraduate knowledge about collecting, processing, and integrating data for GIS projects. They gain the ability to design and create geodatabases, perform tasks such as coordinate transformations, georeferencing, creating Digital Terrain Models, spatial analysis, geovisualization, and spatial decision support. Students also acquire the ability to design a complete spatial decision support system by applying multi-criteria analysis methods. Through this course, students develop the necessary skills to work autonomously and interdisciplinarily.
