Università Roma Tre

The SEL course, lasting one year, will develop jointly three components - Settlement, Environment and Landscape - considering their inseparable complementarity for the management of the reality around us. It will be a unitary course, led by lecturers who will perform the different parts along a common path.

The historic component, carried out in the first semester, will face the phenomenon "City" over time, and its manifold representations such as maps, charts, plans.
Students will be introduced to the GIS data coverage model of QGIS and several sample applications.
