Form of study
Prerequisites and co-requisites
Availability of the minimum grade (60 points on a 100 scale) for the disciplines "General Geology", "Topography", "Structural Geology and Geographic Mapping", "Quaternary Geology with Fundamentals of Geomorphology", "Fundamentals of Petrography", "Fundamentals of Lithology", "Geoinformatics" or "Geoinformation technologies", "Comprehensive practice in geological surveying".
Course content
The main purpose of geological mapping is to create a consistent, logical model of the structure and development of the research area. The quality and reliability of such a model, in addition to the fundamental training of geologists, is determined by a set of research methods, processing and visualization of their results. The discipline is taught in the following logical sequence: general requirements for studying the geological environment for mapping → requirements for geological surveys and research methods of different genesis of geological bodies and structures → methods of processing and spatial analysis of heterogeneous geological information using specialized software.

Assessment methods and criteria
The results of students' learning activities are evaluated on a 100-point scale. The final assessment is conducted in the form of an exam, with a maximum score of 40 points, a milestone score of 24 points. The semester assessment includes 3 modular tests, each of which is assessed at 10 points and practical work -30 points, as well as writing a term paper on a certain topic -10 points
