Advanced Spatial Analysis.

Catalog description

This elective course will cover advanced spatial analysis techniques, focusing on Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and remote sensing analysis. Unlike the introductory Information Technology course ( ES 3330 ) which introduced students to GIS and remote sensing, this course will explore spatial analysis techniques such as cluster analysis, mapping distributions and density, and Model-building. The focus on remote sensing will explore land use/land cover change mapping and change mapping. Required Field Trip Fee. (Fall; Odd Year) Prerequites: ES 3330 (All courses serving as prerequisites in the School of Science, Engineering and Technology must be completed with a “C” or better in order to advance to the next sequenced course.)
