Learning outcomes
- Analyze the features of natural and anthropogenic systems and objects of the upper crust and its sedimentary layer in particular. - Apply their knowledge to identify and solve problems and make informed decisions in the thematic processing of geological and other geospatial data. - Be able to communicate with experts and experts of different levels of other fields of knowledge, including in the international context, in the global information environment. - Be able to carry out thematic processing and interpretation of geospatial data obtained by various methods of research of the geological environment, to develop appropriate algorithms and software products, to form geodatabases, to create web publications of cartographic data. - Apply educational technologies and methods of teaching geoinformatics in educational institutions.
Form of study
Full-time form
Prerequisites and co-requisites
1. Successful mastering of the course "Fundamentals of Geophysics" or similar in content. 2. Have the skills to work with spreadsheets, databases and other data sources. 3. It is desirable to have the skills to build maps of isolines (in manual or machine version).
Course content
There is an acquaintance with the basics of geostatistical analysis of geophysical data, variogram analysis, basic deterministic and stochastic methods data interpolation and approximation, stochastic modeling, etc. The theoretical bases of geostatistical methods (first of all, different kriging methods), their application in various applied problems of geophysics are studied. Students acquire practical skills in the analysis of spatial distribution of data and their correct approximation by models.

Planned learning activities and teaching methods
Lectures, practical training
Assessment methods and criteria
The control is carried out according to the module-rating system and includes: performance of 5 practical works (where students have to demonstrate the quality of acquired knowledge and solve tasks using the methods and tools outlined by the teacher), performance of 10 independent practical works (where students have to demonstrate quality of acquired knowledge and solve tasks without limiting tools and techniques for solving the problem) and conducting 2 written modular tests. The final assessment is conducted in the form of a written and oral exam.
