Course objectives
The course aims to provide participants with basic skills on how to innovate the management of the economic agenda of municipalities, regions, and micro-regions using geographic information systems. Participants will not only learn the primary purpose and benefits of using GIS in financial planning across different agendas of a municipality, region or micro-region but also learn essential skills, including the processing of big data without programming knowledge and their subsequent possibility of basic visualization through standard tools (such as MS Excel), but also through GIS, which allows visualizing phenomena that are difficult to display using graphs. Therefore, the output will also be knowledge of effective benchmarking of municipalities across the country in the financial planning of various agendas.
Learning outcomes
The student will learn the possibilities of using geographic information systems for managing economic planning in the public sector, including benchmarking, and will acquire the following skills: - overview and search of open data - processing big data without programming skills - data cleaning and basic data processing and visualisation - data transformation for geographic information systems - data visualisation in geographic information systems
