teacher profile teaching materials
- Spatial models, raster and vector. What they are and which are the differences between them.
- Where to get data: local, web-baser geodata services and remote-stored data.
- CRS (Coordinate Reference System): the shape of the Earth, ellipsoid, projection, geographic and projected coordinate systems. WGS84 and UTM.
- Insight into vector and raster: their representation and how to edit them. GIS workflow.
- Data showing and data editing: plotting, styling, clip, difference, georeferencer, polynomial transformation etc.
- Practical lectures using QGIS. CARG mapping and Semi-automatic classification. Classification algorithms.
- GIS using MATLAB
