The evolving topic of Modern GIS technologies has transformed the way we represent and utilize geographic data. This workshop aims to address these changes by providing lecturers with suggestions and inspiration for using Modern GIS technologies. Thereby forming coherent workflow in ArcGIS on urban sustainability and resilience. In this context it presents an iterative didactic concept for working with spatial data.
