A geographic dataset comprises of
features that represent real world phenomena associated with a location relative to the Earth's surface. Examples include roads,
trees, boundaries, lakes, rivers, sales districts and customer locations.</p><p>This course provides a practical introduction to PostgreSQL with PostGIS, covering the following major themes of spatial databases:
installing and configuring PostGIS, viewing PostGIS data in a desktop GIS, spatial SQL queries, spatial joins and spatial indexing.
Although the theory is explained, most of the time during the course will be spent on practical examples, ensuring that delegates
understand how to view spatial data, query spatial databases, etc. The course aims to equip the delegates with the necessary skills
and knowledge to use spatial databases in the daily operations of their respective jobs. <br>
<br>
The course covers the following topics: </p>
<ul>
<li>Object-relational databases with PostgreSQL </li>
<li>Spatial databases with PostGIS </li>
<li>Manipulate and query spatial databases with SQL </li>
<li>Configuring PostgreSQL and PostGIS for spatial data </li>

<hr><p class="HeaderText4"><strong>Short Course in Introduction to Geoinformation Standards </strong></p><p>During this course the practical use of geographic information standards will be demonstrated. Upon completion of the course, delegates
will know how to read, interpret and implement a geographic information standard. A selected number of ISO/TC 211 and South African
national standards, such as ISO 19115, Geographic Information - Metadata, the South African address standard (SANS 1883) and some
OGC web service standards, will be studied during the course. <br>
<br>
The course covers the following topics:</p>
<ul>
<li>International standards on geographic information. </li>
<li>Abstract, meta-, information and service standards. </li>
<li>Implementation of a standard for geographic information. </li>
<li>Conformance with a standard for geographic information. </li>
<li>A number of standards which have been selected as study material for the course.</li>

<hr><p><span class="HeaderText4"> <strong>GIS Professional Practice </strong></span><br>
<strong><br>
</strong>The course covers the Professional Practice theme described in the academic model of the South African Council for Professional Land
and Technical Surveyors (PLATO). Topics include professionalism, professional ethics, social responsibility, professional practices,
partnerships, client relationships, PLATO legislation and rules, Acts relevant to geomatics (e.g. Promotion of Access to Information Act,
Spatial Data Infrastructure Act) and the role of international associations and societies in geomatics.</p><p>This is a distance learning programme presented in the first semester with two compulsory workshops of at least 25 contact hours in total.
Delegates who pass the six assignments and the three hour written exam will receive a certificate of successful completion from the
University of Pretoria.</p><p><strong>COURSE DATES</strong></p>
