Learning outcomes
|
The course provides necessary and useful basic knowledge and skills in crisis management. Emphasis is placed on the integration of GIS and geoinformation technologies in individual parts of the crisis cycle. Individual application domains are taught on a theoretical level and also practised on demonstration tasks.
The course is aimed at acquiring knowledge. Define the main concepts, describe the main approaches, demonstrate theoretical knowledge for solving model problems.
