Programming for Geospatial Analysis
Credits: 3
Grad Meth: Reg, P-F, Aud
Prerequisite: GEOG276 and GEOG373; Must have completed or be concurrently enrolled in MATH120, MATH130, or MATH140; or must have completed MATH220.
Recommended: GEOG306.
Covers conceptual and practical aspects of geospatial data modeling and analysis techniques using the Python programming language. The main focus is on developing a solid understanding of the programmatic conventions needed to create, manipulate, and process geospatial data types, such as point, line, & polygon vectors, networks, trajectories, and space-time extensions. In addition, students will develop a proficiency in applying these data structures to perform automated geospatial analysis, such as GIS operations, agent-based models, and spatial statistics.
Students must pay a $40.00 lab materials fee.
