Objectives
EXPECTED LEARNING RESULTS AND COMPETENCE TO BE ACQUIRE:
To learn through the detailed analysis of the elements of the structure of the urban and territorial systems the phenomena that preserve the physical and functional transformations that they take and their relation to the territorial risks;
To acquire, through the study of models and techniques of spatial analysis (kernel density, landscape ecology, fractal geometry) implemented in the GIS open source environment, the measurement and control capacity of urban and territorial phenomena, analysis of the interaction between the settlement system and Environmental system, the construction of territorial risk scenarios (seismic, hydrogeological, fire, major accident).
Acquire the ability to realize a Municipal Emergency Plan in terms of risk scenarios analysis and proportioning of emergency areas and the detection of the emergency landing condition.


KNOWLEDGE AND COMPLIANCE CAPACITIES:
Knowledge and understanding of the terminology used in the physical and functional models of urban system analysis and their interaction with the environmental system.


CAPACITY TO APPLY KNOWLEDGE AND COMPRESSION:
Know how to apply spatial analysis techniques in the GIS environment, both vector and raster, and identify the emergency landing condition in the context of the planning of the wisdom.


AUTONOMY OF JUDICIARY:
To identify the most appropriate methods for the design of emergency planning design solutions based on the context under consideration.


COMMUNICATIVE SKILLS:
Know how to work in a group and to expose oral and written, textually and graphically, a topic related to the topics discussed.


CAPACITY TO APPLY:
Know how to apply the acquired knowledge and know how to learn independently depending on contexts and evolution of knowledge.

Prerequisites
Basic knowledge of mathematics and representation are required for the successful achievement of objectives.
Contents
the course covers the following topics:
1)The systemic approach for the knowledge of the territory. The land use. The networks. The concept of minimal space unit. The lot: identification, physical description, functional description, land regulation.
2)The knowledge system: organization and information systems for the government of the territory.
3)analysis of spatial data in gis environment (software open source QGIS): techniques and theoretical and empirical models of the urban systems’ analysis:
4) environmental risk definitions and concepts: hazard, vulnerability, exposure, legislation evolution and disciplinary rules; the risk prevention in the urban planning tools; methodological aspects of the assessment of dangerousness and risk, emergency management and urban safety plan.
Teaching Methods
The teaching theory provides lessons and exercises in the classroom. the exercises include contents of teaching and provide the acquisition of instrumental skills for the urban analysis.
Verification of learning
The evaluation of the achievement of the objectives will be done through a written exam during the course and a final oral exam.
The student must demonstrate to be able to apply the main concepts presented in the course.
