Description
Geoprospecting is a discipline linked to geography whose aim is to anticipate the future in order to imagine and design more resilient landscapes. The tools derived from geoprospecting, combined with cartographic tools and tools for simulating the behavior of local stakeholders, can be used to test the impact of more or less virtuous behavior with regard to water resources. A large part of the course will be devoted to the use of modeling platforms, enabling students to manipulate these tools.
Objectives
The aim of this integrative course is to introduce students to a range of approaches for analyzing and simulating the spatial dynamics of a landscape or a developed area ex-ante and ex-post.
1) to investigate the impact of these dynamics on water flows, or vice versa,
2) to anticipate the spatial distribution of virtuous developments or practices (hydrological or agri-environmental engineering).
Necessary prerequisites
Basic knowledge of computer programming.
Knowledge control
Continuous assessment in the form of a TD report by small groups of students (100%)
