Aim of the course is to introduce different types of spatial data available for the whole World. Within the course, students will learn about the data acquisition methods, processing, interconnection, analysis and interpretation. Within the course we will work with remotely sensed data (satellite imagery, InSar, LiDAR), spatial data repositories (old maps, aerial imagery, vector data) and available statistical data. The fast growing GIS cloud services are covered within the course as well as their offer wide range of different types of spatial data maintained by the GIS community. Processing, analysis and visualization of the selected spatial data will be performed using commercial and open-source GIS tools.
