This module gets you familiar with different geovisualisation tools and examples, so you can make the best visualisations by yourself. Theoretic part consists of two lectures and one seminar, which allows you to see different aspects of geovisualition and get ready to make your own in the practical section. Practicals have exercises and videos to give you different changes to learn, depending on what is your background. Few quizzes help you to reflect what you think about different examples and what you have learned.
