RILIEVO DI DATI PER L'AGRICOLTURA DI PRECISIONE E RAPPRESENTAZIONE DEL TERRITORIO

The course aims at providing disciplinary and professional skills on techniques and technologies for precision agriculture. In particular, the course aims at enabling students to make use of information technology and data coming from different sources, such as satellite positioning (GNSS) data, remote sensing and proximal data gathering, for developing the skills needed to directly act for optimising farm practices, increasing efficiency of input use, and reducing environmental impacts. Furthermore, the students will be able to navigate, via the internet, and perform with extreme simplicity, the “visura ipo-catastale”, integrating the map data, the Land and Building Cadaster, by integrating Web-GIS technology and cadastral mapping (PREGEO and DOCFA software).

Interactive lessons.

If teaching is given in a mixed formula or remotely, necessary changes may be introduced to what was previously stated in order to comply with the provided and reported syllabus.

Learning assessment may be done remotely if necessary.

"As a guarantee of equal opportunities and in compliance with current laws, interested students can ask for a personal interview in order to plan any compensatory and/or dispensatory measures, based on their specific needs and on teaching objectives of the discipline.
It is also possible to ask the departmental contacts of CInAP (Center for Active and Participatory Integration - Services for Disabilities and/or DSAs), in the persons of professors Giovanna Tropea Grazia and Anna De Angelis."

The course is grouped into macro-modules as indicated below.
