Learning unit contents
This course involves carrying out, with a relatively high degree of independence, a technical project in the field of geographic information science. The project topic changes from year to year and draws on the skills acquired in other courses within the programme (R&D in Geoinformation, Spatial Data Infrastructures, etc.). It usually comprises the following stages
- spatial database design
- Spatial data processing and integration
- Analysis and visualisation
All of which can be carried out using a server-based approach.
The project is intended to be "professional" in its execution, management and presentation.
Learning outcomes of the learning unit
By the end of this module, students will be able to apply the theoretical and technical aspects covered in the programme's lectures to a project subject to constraints similar to those encountered in the professional world
Prerequisite knowledge and skills
GIS, databases, programming
Planned learning activities and teaching methods
A session is dedicated to the presentation of the project's specifications. The student will then have to do the work autonomously and find information in books, on the internet or by contacting the teacher.
