Introduction to Planning Software Applications-GIS
Description
This course provides students with an applied understanding of GIS and its relationship with MS Excel and its intricate dependency to raw data. Students will be introduced to all key aspects of a GIS system, from the access and integration of raw (tabular format) data to visual spatial mapped products using ArcMap. Students will focus on data scrubbing, data querying, thematic mapping, editing attribute information, spatial analyses, and advanced visualization techniques of map design.
Please note: The Thursday session is a two-hour virtual lab that will provide students with the opportunity to practice using the course software.
* Please note that there has been a recent change to the program curriculum. SPD101 has been replaced by two 7 week courses (SPD121 and SPD122) that cover the same learning outcomes but offer students the opportunity to practice their skills with a dedicated lab each week. Students who have already taken SPD101 or have received transfer credit for SPD101 are not affected by this change.
Note: Check with the institution regarding start/ end dates, prices, and delivery method. These may vary according to the program, section, and/or semester.
