| Summary |
|---|
| The subject focuses on the principles of project management in geoinformatics, explaining basic approaches of waterfall, prototyping and agile methods of management, learn students how to used the Return of Investment (ROI) method, explaining economic aspects of projects, definition and assesment of costs and benefits of projects. The subject includes also the basic interpretation of technical standardization and the review of the most important standards, introduction to the selected European directives (mainly INSPIRE), main Czech laws related to geoinformatics and principles of building geoinformation infrastructures. |
| Learning Outcomes of the Course Unit |
|---|
| The objective is to learn students basic principles of project management in geoinformatics, based on PMBOK, ROI, classic as well as agile methods of project management, monitoring of the project economy, principles of spatial information infrastructure building and selected laws and regulations. |
