Objectives of the Course |
|
- To understand the principles, applications, trends, and pertinent issues of geographical information systems and sciences, including remote sensing (RS), Photogrammetry, cartography, and global positioning systems (GPS).
- To provide learning and teaching experiences with real world problems.
- To develop technical skills and competence in data and information acquisition, extraction, management and analysis; spatial and statistical modelling; mapping and visualization.
- To increase awareness of GIS and modelling tools for improving competition and business potential.
- To describe how geographical information is used, managed, and marketed globally.
- To gain an understanding of how to manipulate and apply vector and raster spatial data, particularly with regard to local/state/national issues, emphasizing lands in and near it.
