Course Description:
Geo Data (a.k.a. Geospatial data, spatial data or geographic information) is data referenced to a place recorded as a set of geographic coordinates). Everything happens somewhere and often taking into account the location of an event or phenomena is important in understanding it. We use Geographic Information systems to capture, manipulate, analyse and visualize data. In this course you will get an insight into the ways in which the geo data is obtained and learn in a structured way to assess the applicability of the geo data. You will use Open Data and Remote Sensing and assess, among other, its thematic and spatial quality. You will be able to identify the requirements of the geo data in order to solve a spatial problem. In addition, you will prepare your geo data so that it is suitable for the geographic analysis and visualization.
