-
2.00 Credits
Modeling geographic reality in information systems, from its conceptualization and generalization from the real world, to its digital representation in the computer and back to the relationship between results of this digital manipulation and the real world it represents. Prerequisite: enrollment in MS GIS program or permission of the Program Director. NU only.
-
2.00 Credits
Provides fundamental theoretical knowledge about information systems in general and the unique demands created by geographic information. Introduces students to concepts of information systems theory, systems design and architecture, databases and data modeling, middleware and data interoperability standards as applied to geographic information systems. Prerequisite: GIS 611 or permission of the Program Director. NU only.
-
2.00 Credits
Begins with basic theory of cartographic and graphic data as it applies to GIS data. Explores GIS data models to support mapping and various advanced applications of cartographic methods, including multivariate mapping, multiscale mapping, cartographic visualization including mixed virtual reality, animated and interactive mapping, and Web mapping. Prerequisites: GIS 613 or permission of the Program Director. NU only.
-
3.00 Credits
Combines a survey of statistical foundations needed by GIS practitioners with a detailed understanding of the range of spatial analytical techniques and the skills necessary for expert application of these techniques to specific problems. Includes fundamental concepts needed to understand advanced rule-based, statistical, process-based and deterministic methods of spatial analysis. Prerequisite: GIS 612. May repeat for degree credit up to 6 credits. NU only.
-
1.00 Credits
Introduction to programming concepts necessary for GIS: writing simple statements, organizing code, handling user interaction, and incorporating decision-making logic in code. Introduction to object-oriented programming concepts: methods, properties, and event-driven programming. Prerequisites: at least one course or demonstrated expertise in Java, C++, or Visual Basic plus enrollment in the MS GIS program or permission of the Program Director. NU only.
-
2.00 Credits
Provides necessary foundation skills in geographic information technology, including scanning, digitalizing, georeferencing, datums, projections, coordinate systems, metadata, terrain modeling, geocoding, and GPS. Individual and group work complements theory and concepts taught in 611. Prerequisites: enrollment in MS GIS Program or permission of the Program Director. NU only.
-
2.00 Credits
Focuses on the important database component of GI Technology. Following an intensive training course to acquire geodatabase design skills, students undertake group work on supervised class projects supplementing taught theory and technology concepts. Prerequisites: GIS 621 or permission of the Program Director. NU only.
-
2.00 Credits
Provides mastery of the complex suite of spatial analysis functionality available in GI Systems. Following an intensive training course to acquire advanced spatial analysis skills students undertake group work on supervised class projects supplementing taught theory and technology concepts. Prerequisites: GIS 622 or permission of the Program Director. NU only.
-
1.00 Credits
Covers the fundamentals of remotely sensed image data-physics, spectral signature, and basics of visual interpretation. Students will be required to acquire image data and perform extended interpretation of their study area. Repeat for degree credit up to 2 credits. NU only.
-
2.00 Credits
Provide students exposure to advanced research and innovative developments in GI Systems and Science and the opportunity to hear presentations from GIS researchers, analysts, developers, and managers who live in or visit the Redlands region. Also includes participation in the annual ESRI International User Conference. Prerequisites: Enrollment in MS GIS Program or permission of the Program Director. CN only.
