About this course
Learning outcome
Knowledge: Students will gain knowledge of three-dimensional (3D) modelling and visualization techniques for landscape design and planning by using commercially available 3D tools and software packages. Students will gain knowledge on best practices for using 3D tools for visualizing projects.
Skills: Students will practice with 3D tools and techniques at computer labs for terrain modeling, site analysis, 3D illustrations and animations.
General competence: On completion of the course, students will have overview over 3D modelling techniques and processes for landscape design and planning and should be able to work with: 3D terrain models, perform analysis and site studies from the terrain, creating 3D visualizations and illustrations.
- Course is based on flipped classroom teaching method. Pre-recorded video lectures and work assignments are provided to students before class session. In-class time sessions at computer lab is devoted to practice, supervision and discussions. The lectures ( Pr-recorded video is in Norwegian. The supervision can be given in English.
- Pre-recorded video lectures + exercises + individual work + practice hours with supervision at computer lab.
- LAD100,LAA116,LAA214 or equivalent competence for exchange students
Portfolio evaluation.
Individual assignments are evaluated according to the principles that are demonstrated in the lectures and assignments description. In order to pass the course:
1- 80% of all assignments should be successfully completed and approved by external examiner and teacher.
2- Final project should be successfully completed and approved by external examiner and teacher.
Outcome of the evaluation of assignments and final project is presented in a seminar at the end of the course in the presence of an external examiner.
- External examiner will evaluate students work, teaching material, final project, course structure and check whether course objectives are been achieved.
- Final project + all assignments should be submitted within the deadline.
- Expected total spending time: 300 hours (30% lectures time + practice time at computer lab with supervision. 70% individual work).
- M-LA 3rd year
- Passed / Not Passed
