Presentation
The scope of the UC extends from the understanding of geographic space, georeferenced information associated with information systems.
In this course, the student will have a vision of information systems to support decision-making, namely in the production of documents that reflect spatial or other analyses.
It is in these systems that georeferenced information is combined with alphanumeric or other information.

Objectives
Objectives
Based on in-depth research, the student will increase their knowledge and technological experience in Aeronautical Geography, combining the latest Geographic Information Technologies (TIG) and Air Traffic Management (ATM), namely in terms of Aeronautic Information Management (AIM), thus making it possible to establish a perfect correlation between these two areas, given the emerging needs in the aeronautics sector.
