Course abstract | |
The aim of the study course is to acquire the necessary knowledge to work with the 3D modeling program SketchUp Pro. The course includes the possibilities provided by SketchUp Pro for modeling of outdoor elements, buildings, relief, development and presentation of landscape architecture projects of various complexity, as well as the possibilities provided by SketchUp LayOut program. | |
Learning outcomes and their assessment | |
1. Knowledge: students gain knowledge about 3D modeling and the possibilities provided by the SketchUp program. Practical work No. 1-4.
2. Skills: Students are able to create models of outdoor elements, buildings, terrain, landscape architecture projects of different complexity and present them with the help of SketchUp program. Practical work No. 1-4. 3. Competence: to competently apply the possibilities provided by the SketchUp program in the development of landscape architecture projects. Practical work No. 1-4. |
