Lernziele Students
- have a solid understanding of concepts, models, and techniques underlying the modeling, management, processing, and querying of diverse types of spatial and spatio-temporal data
- know important spatial and spatio-temporal indexing structures
- can employ core algorithmic frameworks for processing spatial and spatio-temporal queries
- can apply key algorithms adopted from computational geometry
- can apply suitable data management techniques using systems such as PostgreSQL or PostGIS
Lerninhalte - Principles and requirements of managing spatial data
