What You'll Learn

GIS stands for Geographic Information Systems (GIS). Using computer hardware and GIS software, we can display, query, analyze, and interpret geospatial data in visual ways, revealing patterns and relationships in the geographic world. GIS enables us to understand what has happened, what is happening, and what will happen in geographic space. Geospatial science has become increasingly important in developing solutions to global challenges such as sustainability, food security, healthcare management, and even rapid urbanization, amongst others, particularly with advancements in technologies like satellite systems or Global Positioning System (GPS)-enabled devices.

This short course covers the following components: (1) Spatial Reference and Coordinate Systems; (2) Geometric Transformation; (3) Spatial Database, Spatial Information Digitization, and Spatial Data Processing and Management.
