Course detail
Applied geoinformatics
FAST-NEB048Acad. year: 2025/2026
Content of the subject will be deepening of data sources and data formats, creation and analysis of digital terrain model, spatial interpolation and general basics of GIS analysis over vector and raster data. At the end of the course the student will be able to understand and explain the essence of basic methods of geoinformatics, to use individual methods and to provide rational justification of the conditions of their practical use.
