Form of study
Full-time form
Prerequisites and co-requisites
1) know the basics of cartography: methods and means of mapping, types of maps, types of legends, history of mapping; 2) be able to search and analyze statistical and thematic information for creating maps; 3) have the skills to work in modern GIS programs.
Course content
The course consists of three content modules. The first is devoted to the study of the conceptual and methodological foundations of mapping socio-economic phenomena and processes: the principles of development and classification of socio-economic maps, methods and means of mapping, features of mapping social phenomena, principles and approaches to editing socio-economic maps are revealed. The second module reveals the topics and methods of creating economic maps: agriculture, industry, transport and communication maps. The third module considers the subject and methodology of developing infrastructure maps: industrial and social. This is the creation of maps of the population and demographic situation, maps of service, science, education, culture, health care. Historical, political-administrative and political maps are considered separately. For various types of maps, the methodology of their development and construction of a cartographic image, the development of a legend, and the creation of a design are outlined. The principles of generalization and editing are revealed.
