GIS APPLICATIONS IN CIVIL ENGINEERING

Catalog description

Students will gain an understanding of the basic components, functions of and terminology associated with Geographic Information Systems. Each student will create a typical GIS for civil engineering use. In doing so, they will develop specific competencies in: creating and populating geodatabases; basic data manipulation functions; data editing, and georeferencing Spatial and 3D analysis tools, symbology and general cartographic principles will be utilized by the students in the creation of small scale and large-scale models and maps useful in civil engineering design. Prerequisite: CIVE2205 or CONM2000 (3 credits) summer
