Description
Geoprospecting is a discipline related to geography that aims to anticipate the future in order to imagine and design more resilient landscapes. The tools developed by geoprospective, combined with cartographic tools and tools for simulating the behavior of actors in the territory, make it possible to test the impact of more or less virtuous behaviors with regard to water resources. A large part of the EU's course time will be devoted to the use of modeling platforms so that students can learn how to use these tools.
Objectives
The objective of this integrative EU is to introduce students to a set of approaches for analyzing and simulating the spatial dynamics of a landscape or developed territory ex ante and ex post.
1) in order to investigate the impact of these dynamics on water flows, or conversely,
2) in order to anticipate the spatial distribution of beneficial developments or practices (hydrological or agro-environmental engineering).
Mandatory prerequisites
Basic knowledge of computer programming.
Knowledge assessment
Continuous assessment in the form of a tutorial report by small groups of students (100%)
