Course objectives
Overview of typical methods of cartographic modeling is presented. The course is oriented on map algebra, overlay algebra and network analysis. Integration of cartographic modeling methods and theory of general cartographic model is given. The main part of the course is devoted to the practical examples of cartographic modeling (descriptive, prescriptive, predictive modeling and simulation).
