Sustainability challenges often require analysis and knowledge of spatial data like land-use or patterns and networks of infrastructure. GIS tools offer both mapping and data analysis options and are widely used in science and application. In this course, you will get to know QGIS, an open software used in both in science and the private sector. The seminar adresses the theoretical background of GIS and spatial data as well as its practical application in the software. Following topics will covered:

-Coordinate systems, projections and basics of cartography

-Geoprocessing with vector data

-Digitizing and Georeferencing of historical maps/ aerial photos

- Recording and loading geographic coordinates

- Creating map layouts and printouts

This lecture introduces a social-ecological system perspective on humans and their environment through a spatial science lens. Taking spatially explicit approaches, we will identify features and trends of society linked to location or spatial features. Thereby, this course will engage both with biophysical as well as social characteristics that relate to specific types of interactions between people and their environment. We therefore present basic concepts of Social-Ecological Systems, Human Geography, Economic Geography, Geomorphology, Soil Science, Climatology, Landscape Ecology, Spatial Planning, Mobility & Traffic, Urbanisation and Climate Adaptation to provide an overview of topics taught in the further courses of the Minor programme.
