Course program
- Elements of general cartography;
- Projections, geographic coordinates and geographic scale;
- Reading topographic maps Thematic cartography and elements of spatial analysis;
- Thematic maps;
- Point maps: general information; spatial structure;
- Line maps: generalities; the graph; flow maps;
- Area maps: general information; the two types of area maps; value classes; from points to areas: density maps and isopleths; distance calculation; areal correspondence; spatial correlation;
- Surface maps: Maps of continuous phenomena; interpolation of points; from points to surfaces: contour lines;
- Cartograms and cartodiagrams Geographic information systems;
- Automatic mapping and GIS;
- Georeferenced data;
- Raster and vector - Overlay - Data joining.
The main functions of spatial analysis QGis: use and functions (laboratory) - During the workshop, the basics for using QGis to build raster and vector maps, thematic cartography for points, lines, areas, and surfaces (contours), georeferencing, and spatial analysis of data will be provided.
