Description

This is the evolution of the traditional geology field camp. It is a hybrid course composed of about two weeks of online instruction (both synchronous and asynchronous) and 3 weeks of field mapping in the Dolomites of Eastern Italy. Transportation is provided from and to Venice airport. The minimal travel time to outcrops and the field location makes it possible to carry out several mapping projects in a short time.
