Information

Aims, contents and method of the course

This lecture deals specifically with the principles of cartography, web based geo-information processing and geo-communication. In the course of the lecture the main terms, methods, concepts as well as methodical and practical approaches are discussed. Practical exercises round up the class.

The participants should understand the significance of cartographic visualisation of thematic phenomena. They must also comprehend the usage of various depiction methods for spatial information within geography and cartography and be aware of when these can be applied. The cognition of identifying and solving problems within the scope of cartography and geo-communication in today's modern information society and working in teams is, beside the acquisition of cartographic knowledge and competence, a major cornerstone of this course.

Assessment and permitted materials

Minimum requirements and assessment criteria

Die Teilnehmer sollen die Bedeutung der kartographischen Visualisierung von thematischen Sachverhalten begreifen, sowie darüber Bescheid wissen, welche Darstellungsformen und -methoden für die Umsetzung raumbezogener Inhalte innerhalb der Geographie und Kartographie zur Anwendung kommen können. Die Erkenntnisse, wie das Erkennen und Lösen von Problemen, die Bedeutung der Kartographie und Geokommunikation in der modernen Informationsgesellschaft sowie das Arbeiten im Team sind neben der kartographischen, fachlichen Kompetenz, die im Rahmen dieser Lehrveranstaltung erworben werden soll, als wichtige Eckpfeiler anzusehen.
