The objectives of this course are:
o to provide students knowledge about different forms of geoinformation and possibilities of different ways of their input into computer's memory, about reference coordinate systems and transformations between them
o to train students for interpretation and application of different functions to customize and edit geoinformation, for their analyzing and presentation of results, for insight into importance of quality, intellectual property and copyright of geoinformation
o to continue development of knowledge and skills that students have acquired in the course Basics of Geoinformaticsand to give wider insight into the issues that will processed more detailed in other courses
