Bridging Courses
Although there are no mandatory prerequisites for this exam, students are strongly recommended to take it after Databases.
It is also worth noticing that the topics covered by this course will be used in Geomatics.
Learning Achievements (Dublin Descriptors)
- students must obtain a good ability to use the dedicated software and be able to independently develop a project on the types of exercises in the classroom.
- the student must be able to produce a report in electronic format (* .docx, * .pdf, * .pptx) with which communicate the results obtained from the development of the project realized.
- During the oral exam the student will have to explain, with the appropriate language, the development of the project and the results obtained.
Teaching Material
The teaching material prepared by the lecturer in addition to recommended textbooks (such as for instance slides, lecture notes, exercises, bibliography) and communications from the lecturer specific to the course can be found inside the Moodle platform › blended.uniurb.it
Teaching, Attendance, Course Books and Assessment
- Teaching
Theory lectures and laboratory exercises, both face-to face and on-line.
- Attendance
Although recommended, course attendance is not mandatory.
- Course books
Seravalli, "GIS. Teorie e applicazioni", La Mandragora Editrice, 2011.
- Assessment
Individual project and oral exam.
- Disabilità e DSA
Le studentesse e gli studenti che hanno registrato la certificazione di disabilità o la certificazione di DSA presso l'Ufficio Inclusione e diritto allo studio, possono chiedere di utilizzare le mappe concettuali (per parole chiave) durante la prova di esame.
A tal fine, è necessario inviare le mappe, due settimane prima dell’appello di esame, alla o al docente del corso, che ne verificherà la coerenza con le indicazioni delle linee guida di ateneo e potrà chiederne la modifica.
Additional Information for Non-Attending Students
- Teaching
Practical exercises to be carried out independently according to the material provided to show to the teacher.
