Form of study
Full-time form
Prerequisites and co-requisites
1. To know the theoretical and practical foundations of geoinformatics. 2. Possess the skills of working in the software environment of geoinformation systems.
Course content
Familiarization with the methods of modeling and GIS analysis of spatial objects, which are most often used for mapping with the purpose of forecasting their development and forming the basis for supporting management decisions regarding them.

Planned learning activities and teaching methods
The discipline is devoted to the modeling of the urbanized territory and the analysis of the created models using the tools of the geoinformation system. The process of creating a working environment for working out the concepts of municipal management, understanding and tracking the development of existing work (emergency) situations, monitoring the execution of given orders and prescriptions, forecasting possible situational states is considered. As a theoretical basis for such forecasting, a whole set of classic operations of GIS analysis is considered: measurement; spatial selection; automated classification; overlay operations; neighborhood functions; connectivity etc. To develop practical skills, a complex of tasks was created in the environment of the geoinformation system to determine the density of the city's buildings, noise pollution of the urbanized territory and zoning of the city according to the specified criteria for the purpose of the territory.
Assessment methods and criteria
Final assessment in the form of a modular test (written/oral form): the maximum number of points for it is 40 points, the minimum number of points added to the semester test is 24 points (60% of the maximum number of points assigned to the modular test). Students who scored a total of less points than the critical calculation minimum - 20 points are not allowed to write the modular test. The recommended minimum for admission to it is 36 points. A student is allowed to write a modular test subject to the submission of all the reports for practical work provided for in the plan. For works not submitted by the specified deadline, 2 points are deducted for each day of delay.
