Key topics include geographic knowledge representation, semantic networks, Formal Concept Analysis (FCA), ontology development and integration, semantic similarity measures, and geospatial information visualization. Students choose a topic to study during the semester, such as: development of an ontology or integration of existing ontologies, extraction, and analysis of geographic information from texts, twitter, etc., application of similarity measures - spatialization and development of a semantic network. Upon successful completion of the course, students will be critically aware of methods and conceptual tools for representing geographic knowledge and their interconnections with different fields using their knowledge and problem-solving skills in new or unfamiliar environments.
