The course includes exercises, assignments, and a project where all geodata management is done using open source software. A solution is created where geodata will be stored in a database via open source software for geodata management. The software and solutions to be used in the course are introduced through exercises. A server solution is used to create geodata services for web visualisation via map services. Geodata analyses and processing are carried out in a project focusing on climate adaptation of some kind or on non-fossil energy sources.

The project proposals that will be available are:
- to create a model where suitable areas for wetland restoration are identified using geographic analysis methods,
- to create a model where urban environments at risk of high temperatures are identified and analysed (environments where more green spaces would be needed),
- to create a model to identify suitable areas for wind farms, and
- to create a model to identify rooftops suitable for solar panels.
