Objectives and competences

The aims of this course are: understanding basic GIS concepts and development of GIS knowledge, collection and usage of spatial data knowledge and application of georeferences knowledge of GIS data models interpretation of the examples of the use of GIS in logistics planning and performing GIS analysis in logistics and creation of report conception and building a basic model of the logistics process with GIS and using the model knowledge and use of proprietary and open source GIS software practicing geovisualization of spatial information Competences acquired by students: ? develop geospatial representations in the field of logistics facilities and processes ? know, acquire and use digital geospatial data ? develop advanced work with GIS in logistics, including analysis and modeling ? develop geovisualization skills

Content (Syllabus outline)

1. Concept and development of GIS 2. Spatial data (types, capturing, accessing, spatial reference, spatial data models, usage) 3. Examples of GIS in logistics 4. Contemporary GIS analysis in logistics: o GIS project design, literature review and methodology selection o Cooperation with institutions and field work o Analytical approaches and tools o Report creation 5. Basics of spatial modeling of logistics process with GIS, model building and analysis. 6. GIS software: proprietary (ArcGIS Pro) and open source (QGIS, GRASS GIS) 7. Geovisualization

Learning and teaching methods

Lectures: during the lectures, the student learns the theoretical content of the course. Part of the lectures are conducted in a classroom, and part in the form of e-lectures. In classic and e-lectures, the following is expressed: - the principle of diversity of teaching materials, - the principle of relevant and up-to-date content, - the approach of analyzing changes in space and time (i.e. Wayback Image), - the approach of creating mental schemes, - case studies. Tutorials: in tutorials, the student consolidates theoretical knowledge and learns about application possibilities. Part of the tutorials is carried out in a computer classroom, and part in the form of e-tutorials. As part of tutorials, a field work is carried out with the aim of GIS analysis on a local case, following the method of experiential learning. In tutorials, an approach of different cartographic scales (local/global) is also expressed.

Intended learning outcomes - knowledge and understanding

At the end of the course the student will be able to: describe and explain basic GIS concepts classify and describe the main milestones in the development of GIS know, acquire and use different types of spatial data understand, compare and use map projections, coordinate systems and datums know, select and use GIS data models find and interpret examples of the use of GIS in logistics plan and participate in the implementation of GIS analysis in logistics choose and use GIS analytical tools appropriately participate in the preparation of a report on the performance of the analysis to conceive and build a logistic process model with GIS; to use an appropriate GIS tool for modeling apply the model and interpret the results know and critically consider GIS computer programs; use one proprietary and one open source program operate with tools for interactive display of spatial information and prepare the final map

Intended learning outcomes - transferable/key skills and other attributes

Transferable/Key skills: qualify to work with GIS in the future employment (logistics) environment qualify to use GIS in personal lifelong development apply knowledge and skills in the field of GIS in other study subjects and in continuing studies in the master's program.
