Purpose and description of the content of education:
Celem modułu Ćwiczenia terenowe – Kartowanie geologiczne jest poznanie zasad prowadzenia prac geologiczno-zdjęciowych oraz zasad sporządzania map geologicznych. Student w praktyczny sposób uczy się pozyskiwania danych w terenie poprzez planowanie marszrut, przeprowadzanie obserwacji geomorfologicznych, przeprowadzanie obserwacji geologicznych, dokumentowanie sond i odsłonięć oraz innych obserwacji. Równocześnie nabywa umiejętność wielopłaszczyznowej analizy zebranych różnorodnych danych (litologicznych, tektonicznych, geomorfologicznych, stratygraficznych, sedymentologicznych) umożliwiających rozpoznanie budowy geologicznej badanego obszaru i opracowanie jej modelu kartograficznego. Na podstawie danych pozyskanych w terenie, ich analizy i interpretacji opracowywane są materiały kartograficzne w formie kompleksowej mapy geologicznej zawierającej mapę geologiczną zakrytą, mapę geologiczną odkrytą, przekroje geologiczne, profile litostratygraficzne, objaśnienia tekstowe, mapę geosozologiczną.
