GEG-230

Spatial Analysis & GIS

This course introduces students to geospatial analyses that are used for problem-solving and decision-making. Students will learn how to perform these analyses using Geographic Information Systems (GIS) software (i.e. Esri ArcGIS). As a guiding framework, this course shows how GIS is used to answer fundamental questions in geography that are related to problem-solving and decision-making in a wide range of careers and academic disciplines. Students will be introduced to Python and learn a few introductory scripting commands for automating geospatial processes. Upon completion of this course, students will be able to make informed decisions when choosing GIS-based approaches for conducting geospatial analyses, and be able to create basic scripts to automate GIS workflows.
