Course objectives
The course is designed for students of geography teaching, in which they learn to work in the Geographical Information Systems (GIS).
Learning outcomes
Student are able to: work with GIS program, especially ArcGIS Desktop, application ArcMap, ArcCatalog, ArcToolbox work with basic tools in GIS work with web sites focused on the satellite image find suitable maps on the internet/ map servers work with free downable data for GIS to add WMS server or other GIS servers into GIS
Syllabus
  • ArcMap - cartographic visualisation, The maps of Czech Republic, thematic maps (geology, Nature Protection, NATURA, air pollution etc.), other useful websites, their didactic use. Remote Sensing – space images, didactic transformation of the images from the satellite LANDSAT, Space images – observing up-to-date images from satellites METEOSAT and NOAA, to create the animation on the basis of satellite images to classify the cloudiness in Europe. Students work on their maps which they must hand over in a set dates.
