Learning outcomes
|
The course aims to provide knowledge and skills in cartography and geoinformatics for advanced geographical studies. Both geographical disciplines will be presented in mutual relations (GIS as a tool for cartographic creation, web cartography). In teaching methods, the central part is focused on practical tasks (exercises) following the theory of disciplines (lectures). The expected output competencies of the student include basic methods of thematic cartography, procedures for solving the composition of the map and legend, data creation in the GIS environment, selected generalisation methods, examples of distance analysis, overlap and raster algebra.
