Summary/Abstract: The implementation of new courses to the educational offer i.e. computer labs are often associated with high cost on licenses for commercial software and the cost of teaching materials. At the same time the development of computer technology require from the teaching staff to implement new teaching techniques and preparing new courses which covers using new solutions (mostly digital or based on computer technologies) in solving existing problems. Schools and universities wishing to maintain high positions in rankings or remain competitive should bring new solutions to existing courses and new courses in response to the needs of the labor market. An interesting alternative to commercial software is open-source software, which often also have wide range of freely available teaching materials. In this paper we present software and teaching materials form Bilko project and our experience and results of implementation of new course called Remote Sensing of Land Surface at the faculty of Building Services, Hydro and Environmental Engineering, based on a free software and teaching materials from Bilko project.
