GIS and Natural Resources (152063)
Nositelj predmeta
Opis predmeta
Nowadays it is obvious and generally accepted that natural resources can not be managed in a classical way. For proper management of natural resources geographic information system (GIS) should be established. The aim of this module is to give students knowledge about geographic information systems and also the basics of remote sensing, basically about usage of different kinds of images for management of natural resources.
During lectures and practical work students will got knowledge about GIS and similar technologies (global positioning system, digital elevation models). Within the GIS, explanations about: different kind of GIS models, different kind and forms of data (geographic data, attribute data and their maintenance), techniques for merging geographic and attribute data, queries and analysis of spatial data will be given. Students will also got knowledge about scanning, digitizing and vectorisation of maps as well as cartographic datums and projections and georeferencing of scanned maps. They will also learn about practical use of GIS as well as methods of maps and reports creation and printing.
