ANLY 570 - Principles of Spatial Analysis


(3 semester hours)
Prerequisites: None
Description: This course introduces desktop Geographic Information Systems (GIS) through four distinct Units.  1) Spatial data concepts such as spatial data models and management, topology, spatial reference systems and cartographic principles.  2) Standard Spatial Operation tools found in off-the-shelf GIS software such as proximity and overlay analysis.  3) Advanced Spatial Analysis and Statistics to look deeper into geographic patterns, distribution measurement and clustering.  4) Individualized application of spatial analysis tools relevant to the student’s industry focus.  

On the practical side, the student will be introduced to two instances of GIS desktop software: ArcMap, and ArcGIS Pro.  Both packages provide a menu driven introduction to common tools used in Spatial Analytics.
