Annotation -
Field training course of the geological mapping has the aim to acquaint the students with basic methods of field geological investigations. Training is focused on geological mapping as basic and most important part of geological investigations.
The participants obtain practical abilities in distinguishing of the rocks types and assembling of the geological map. During short courses they try to use the different methods of geological mapping as remote sensing, geophysical methods etc. Accompanied training in basic methods of structural geology, quaternary geology, sedimentology and volcanology makes them able to characterize a complete geological developement of the studied region. Studenti si náklady na ubytování, stravu a dopravu hradí sami. The estimated costs for 16 days are CZK 8,500. Substitution of the subject is not possible. It is possible to apply for a scholarship in case of a difficult social situation at the study department.

Learning outcomes -

learning outcomes:

1. Introduction to geological mapping

The student will describe the basic principles of geological mapping and explain the importance of geological maps for the analysis of geological evolution.
The student will compare different types of geological maps and identify their specific characteristics and use in fieldwork.
2. Identification and analysis of rocks in the field

The student identifies basic rock types and analyzes their textures and structures in field settings.
The student explains the genetic meanings of primary textures and structures of sediments and igneous rocks, and applies this knowledge to the identification of rock types in the field.
3. Analysis of ductile and brittle structures in the field

The student analyzes ductile and brittle geologic structures, such as folds, faults, and various deformations, and applies methods to describe them in the field.
The student interprets the origin and evolution of these structures and discusses their influence on the geology of an area.
4. Geophysical methods in geological mapping

The student describes the basic principles of geophysical methods (gravimetry, magnetometry) and analyses their use in geological mapping.
The student interprets geophysical data in the context of geological structure and applies them to specific mapping tasks.
5. Remote Sensing Methods (RSM)

The student explains the principles of remote sensing and identifies ways in which remote sensing and satellite imagery can be used in geologic mapping.
The student interprets satellite and aerial imagery and applies this information to identify geological structures and

6. Documentation of geological research and creation of maps
1. The student performs field documentation and applies standard procedures in the collection of geological data in the field.
2. The student creates a geological map based on collected field data and applies the principles of geological development to synthesize and interpret the results.


7. Synthesis of the geological development of the studied area
1. The student synthesizes the geological development of the studied area and uses methods of geological mapping and analysis for a comprehensive interpretation of geological processes.
2. The student creates a final geological report that integrates all obtained field and analytical data into a comprehensive picture of geological development.


8. Communication of geological mapping results
1. The student presents the results of geological mapping, including geological interpretations, based on field data, geophysical methods and remote sensing, and explains these results to the professional public.
2. The student discusses the possible applications of geological mapping in geological, environmental and engineering studies.
