Each topic is introduced by a lecture which seeks to
identify the main issues in order to convey an
understanding of the relative importance of the technical
issues to the customization of software tools, Internet GIS
and Visualization methods related to geomatics. The
lectures are accompanied by guided practices and handson workshops in the computer lab.
Students are expected to use the recommended online
tutorials for the standard issues of programming language
used (4 SWS).

Expected learning outcomes:
On successful completion of this module, students should
be able to:
 list different customization approaches in modern
system architectures and apply them,
 explain how geospatial applications works in the
Internet and judge different approaches, applications,
interfaces, and architectures to implement such
applications,
 set up a multi-tier Internet / Intranet applications based
on standard software components,
 list which components are required in modern
visualization techniques and integrate them into
existing workflows,
 set up a web-based 3D-visualization based on OGC
standards.
