Candidates with degrees in other subject areas will be considered if they can demonstrate interest, aptitude and experience in a field relevant to the application of geospatial technology. Duration: 12 months full-time or 24 months part-time (MSc); 9 months full-time or 20 months part-time (PgDip); 4 months full-time or 8 months part-time over 2 years (PgCert). Content: Applied Geospatial Technology (AGT) covers the fundamentals of techniques for acquiring, processing, classifying and visualising spatially referenced data of the Earths surface and their application to study of the Earths surface phenomena (particularly in the geosciences). The first half-session (which may be completed for a Certificate qualification) provides the basic techniques, such as: Global Positioning Systems (GPS); Remote Sensing (RS) from air and space; Digital Image Processing systems (DIPs); Database Systems; Geographical Information Systems (GIS) and Geovisualisation (GeoVis). The second half-session then considers how the basic techniques are applied in a range of spatially referenced research issues, especially in the geosciences. Also covered are geospatial Research Design and Methods, Integrated Use of Geospatial Technologies and How to Plan a GIS Project relating to a real world problem or issue. To qualify for the PgDip a candidate must also, with the approval of the programme co-ordinator, conduct an extended individual study, which can be based on a detailed literature review of a topic, or a report based on a project undertaken as part of a training period (of about one month) within the University or with an approved research institute or industrial partner. Candidates for the MSc degree must complete the 8 taught modules to a satisfactory standard before being invited to proceed to the dissertation stage, when an individual investigation of an approved research topic is required over the final 3 months (if full-time). Candidates who do not achieve a CAS mark of 9 or above in the dissertation will not be awarded the MSc. Candidates shall be required to attend the following designated programme of courses: First Half-Session GG 5018 Geospatial Data Acquisition & Image Processing (15 credit points) GG 5019 Geographical Information Systems (GIS) and Geospatial Data Analysis (15 credit points) GG 5020 Geovisualisation for Presentation & Analysis (15 credit points) Second Half-Session CS 5936 Introduction to Database Systems (15 credit points) GG 5506 Research Design & Methods (15 credit points) GG 5507 Geospatial Aspects of Current Issues in the Geosciences (10 credit points) GG 5508 Integrated Application of Geospatial Technologies (10 credit points) GG 5509 Planning a GIS Project (10 credit points) GG 5807 Geospatial Data Acquisition and Image Processing (15 credit points) Only candidates who complete the above programme at an appropriate standard will be allowed to take the dissertation in Applied Geospatial Technology in the Final Stage. Final Stage GG 5805 Dissertation in Applied Geospatial Technology (75 credit points) [MSc candidates] or GG 5806 Project in Applied Geospatial Technology (15 credit points) [Diploma candidates] Assessment: By a combination of (i) written assignments and laboratory reports as prescribed for each course, (ii) summative written examinations covering the four courses in the first half-session, and (iii) a dissertation (MSc candidates) or a project report (Diploma candidates). An oral examination may be required. The degree of MSc shall not be awarded to a candidate who fails to complete GG 5805 (the MSc dissertation) at CAS mark of 9 or above, irrespective of their performance in other courses. ^_wQ R Z  & hNhFvhN6OJQJhNhN5CJOJQJaJ"hNhN56CJOJQJaJ hN5hNOJQJ ^_Q R   ^W *gdN *gdN gdNgdNgdNgdN 0D%d6gdNW,^UVbcgdN *`gdN `gdN gdN *gdN *gdN  9r *gdN gdN21h:p4.
