Geographic Information Systems - raster
7.5 ECTS credits
The course covers methods in the treatment of geographic information in raster format by means of GIS-software. The main focus is on data layers in vector and raster format as well as spatial analysis of the collected data.
Students work independently on a GIS project comprising project planning, data collection, analysis, and presentation of results. There will be a series of lectures. In addition, students collect their own background information about the area in which the analyses are carried out. At the end of the course, students compile their results in a project report to be presented at an examination seminar.
