1005-250: Galapagos:Ecology and Evolution
3.00 Credits
Rochester Institute of Technology
This is an 11-day fi eld course in Ecuador and the Galapagos Islands. Students meet weekly on the RIT campus during spring quarter to learn about the wildlife and geology of the islands and about their infl uence on Darwin's Theory of Evolution. The diffi culties of balancing human problems with environmental conservation are ongoing problems in the Galapagos. The actual fi eld trip occurs in May, right after graduation. We charter a boat and cruise among the islands for one week. There are daily shore excursions and frequent snorkeling opportunities. The course provides outstanding opportunities for nature photography. Although this is a spring quarter offering, students must contact the instructor during the previous fall quarter. Enrollment is limited to 11 students. A travel fee is required. Credit variable (S)

1006-450: Raster Applications of GIS
3.00 Credits
Rochester Institute of Technology
This course focuses on raster data and surfaces, digital imagery, and the integration of raster geographic information systems (GIS) data and analyses with vector GIS. Topics will include vector-to-raster conversions; managing raster layers, attributes and databases; overlay analyses; neighborhood analyses; map algebra; surface modeling (2-D and 3-D); and basic remote sensing applications. Students will read and discuss case studies from a variety of disciplines using raster analyses, learn and apply similar tools and analyses in a series of lab experiments, and conduct an independent project based on lab exercises or a topic of their own interest. No prerequisite, but 1006-350 Applications of GIS is strongly recommended. Class 3, Lab 3, Credit 4 (W)
