Summary

The course will provide an introductory overview of the problems of spatial information systems with a focus on GIS. Attention is given to geodata, geofeatures and data models. It is also discussed the issue of digital terrain models, satellite navigation and positioning systems, photogrammetry and remote sensing. Analytical procedures and methods are focused on land use and spatial planning.
