Course content
The academic discipline involves studying the theoretical principles of geoinformation and remote quality assurance of the environment and nature conservation and quality control tools based on the use of geospatial data. The discipline is aimed at developing in students the skills of searching, critically evaluating, obtaining and analyzing geospatial data, including remote sensing data, to solve theoretical, methodological and applied problems in the field of natural geography and the use of environmental quality control tools and nature conservation.
