Learning outcomes
Use cartographic models of natural resources in the field of Earth sciences. To use topographic-geodetic and photogrammetric equipment and technologies, methods of mathematical processing of topographic-geodetic and photogrammetric measurements. Use methods of mathematical processing in geological, hydrogeological and geodetic research, as well as methods and technologies of land management design, territorial and economic land management, land use planning and protection, cadastral surveys and maintenance of state land cadastre. Develop projects of land management, land management and cadastral documentation and land valuation documentation, compile maps and prepare cadastral data using computer technology, geographic information systems and digital photogrammetry. Apply models, methods and data of physics, chemistry, ecology, mathematics, geology, hydrogeology, etc. in the study of natural processes of formation and development of the Earth.

Planned learning activities and teaching methods
Lectures and laboratory classes, self-study
Assessment methods and criteria
1. Semester evaluation: - control work on the basics of geographic information systems -15 points (milestone score 9 points). - control work on the basics of spatial analysis - 15 points (milestone score 9 points). - assessment for work in laboratory classes - 30 points (a milestone score of 18 points). 2. Final grade in the form of an exam: maximum grade 40 points (terminal grade 24 points). During the exam, the student performs the implementation of the project using knowledge and skills in the basics of geoinformation systems in geosciences. The results of students' learning activities are evaluated on a 100-point scale.
