"Geospatial science"@en . . "5" . "Description\nThe course covers generic concepts and techniques that apply to all aspects of geospatial sciences. Starting from a consideration of the nature of mapping and its uses, this also encompasses acquisition methods (including satellite and aerial imagery, laser scanning, positioning systems etc.) and fundamental concepts of reference systems. The course continues by looking at techniques for handling digital map data, and goes on to look at the work of national mapping organisations. The course is delivered through lectures, computer practicals, field trips and workshops.\n\nLearning Outcomes\n\nDevelopment of technical knowledge of the most significant techniques for acquiring spatial data, including the opportunities, challenges and limitations associated with particular techniques;\nDevelopment of appreciation and ability to critically analyse the methods, data and outputs of geospatial endeavours;\nDevelopment of fundamental knowledge of geodesy and reference systems;\nKnowledge and experience in the application of cartographic design principles in the production of mapping for the GIS coursework;\nExperience of problem- and project- definition through individual student-centred coursework brief;\nExperience of providing formative peer feedback through the end of term poster presentation;\nUnderstanding of the issues that arise in developing mapping and charting products from digital data, and the organisational frameworks in which data is acquired and utilised." . .
