Courses

The course LiDAR -Based Approach on Glacial Landscapes (5 ECTS) enables the students to be able to take advantage of the new possibilities of laser scanning (LiDAR) in order to interpret the evolution of the Finnish landforms and soil. The course is arranged annually, previously in 2019 and 2018.
