ENVST-222 Environmental Spatial Analysis
This course will focus on the collection and analysis of spatial data that describes the environment using a Geographical Information Systems (GIS) framework. We will gain an understanding a range of remote sensing techniques including satellite imagery, aircraft surveys, uncrewed aerial systems, and GPS for addressing environmental issues. Emphasis will be placed on spatial thinking in the visualization and interpretation of data. We will cover concepts and tools of a GIS analysis with a hands-on approach that uses both GIS and coding-based software.
