Computer aided engineering applications in environmental engineeringLaajuus (5 ECTS)

Objective

After the course student recognizes basic principles of computer aided drawing programs and GIS.

Content

Fundamentals of one commonly used CAD program and applying the program to create following types of technical documents:
- Scaled layout documents
- Piping and instrumentation diagrams
Basics of geographical information systems (GIS) and spatial information data. Typical geographical information databases and coordinate types and use of them in GIS.
Basics of environmental simulation

Assessment criteria, satisfactory (1)

After completing the course the student is able to interpret layout drawings computer aided (CAD) following the most central rules of scaled documents. Furthermore, he/she is able to create piping and instrumentation (PI) diagrams computer aided.
After the course student recognizes basics of geographical information systems (GIS) and spatial information data.
