  • Docente: Carla Giovannini
  • Credits: 6
  • Language: Italian
  • Teaching Mode: Traditional lectures
  • Campus: Bologna
  • Corso: Second cycle degree programme (LM) in Geography and Territorial Processes (cod. 0971)

Course contents

The student at the end of the biennial educational path linked to the attendance of courses with technological characterization (Numerical Cartography, Geostatistical Analysis of Territorial Data, Geomatics, Remote Sensing) acquires the skills for the study of the territory and the environment as regards multiplicity of aspects (geomorphological, settlement , urban planning, linked to cultural heritage, etc.), through a systemic integrated multidisciplinary approach to select the appropriate tools and techniques to acquire, integrate, process, analyze, archive and distribute geo-referenced spatial data in digital format.

The aim of the Lab is to teach the various techniques of acquisition and processing of territorial data at practical level, for the purposes of the advanced representations of the models deriving from it. Cases concerning the representation of territory will be preferred. We will illustrate the methods of photogrammetric acquisition, acquisition of satellite data, laser scanners, acquisition of data resulting from classical measurements (using topographic instrumentation such as Total Station, levels). The methods of managing the three-dimensional data will be illustrated using digital photogrammetric stations and GIS environments.

The course, entirely carried out at the Geography Section (via Guerrazzi, 20) of History, Culture and Civilization Department, is supported by the constant technical support of dr. ing. Marco Dubbini

Attendance is recommended.

The topics will be:

- Aerial and terrestrial photogrammetric survey techniques and photogrammetric data restitution

- Satellite survey techniques

- Surveying techniques using Airborne and Terrestrial Laser Scanners

- Production of three-dimensional terrain models and management digital information by GIS

- Production of three-dimensional models from historical cartography and historical images
