Course content
|
The aim of the course is to acquaint students with possible applications of geoinformation technologies in environmental applications. With its composition, it copies the contemporary concept of the study of ecosystem services, where the knowledge of geoecology and geoinformatics is intertwined with its analytical approaches. In the introductory part, attention is paid to environmental data sets - their. Students get acquainted with the existence and availability of environmental data, their guarantors, form, method of storage and distribution. Follows the analysis of information contained in the data and their possible interpretation and classification from the perspective of geoinformatics. The analytical part presents classical and modern approaches in mapping and analysis of changes in landscape structure using geoinformation technologies. Students gradually get acquainted with the methods and approaches used for landscape analysis. He then focuses on forestry and agriculture in the Czech Republic. It presents the basic principles of management with an emphasis on actions that are suitable for solutions with geoinformation technologies. It introduces the GI technologies used in the care of ZPF and LPF. In addition to the analysis of the methods used, the pitfalls and benefits of GIT deployment in the given processes are discussed. Content: 1. The role of the GIT in environmental tasks 2. Unified environmental information system, registries and environmental information systems 3. Data sources for environmental models (IASC-LPIS, forest data OPRL, LHP / O, NIL, landscape mapping) 4. Analysis of land use and stability 5. Analysis of landscape structure 6. Analysis of biodiversity using GIT 7. Analysis of landscape ecosystem services 8. Modeling of water-theoretical function of landscape 9. Modeling of erosion-sedimentation processes 10. Modeling of development and dynamics of selected landscape components (landcover / landuse prediction models, growth models) 11. Precise management in forestry and agricultural production
