GEOG 60 - Introduction to Geographic Information Systems

Semester Hours: 3

This course introduces students to Geographic Information Systems (GIS) foundations, concepts, and application techniques. GIS are used to encode, store, analyze, and report spatial data and provide a repository, which can be constructed, maintained, edited and analyzed. By linking different information technologies such as mapping and database management systems, spatial information can be used to facilitate management and decisions in a wide array of fields. These include marketing, industrial and commercial location, resource inventory and management, environmental impact assessment, urban planning, transportation, tracking crime data.
