Teaching

Principles of Geographic Information Systems (GEOL 4403/5503)

Study of GIS fundamentals, introduction to GPS, databases, and metadata. Practical application of ESRI ArcGIS®. Build, edit, and query a GIS; basic spatial analysis. Requires competence in computer operating systems. COREQ: GEOL 4403L/5503L. Levels: Undergraduate/Graduate

Geovisualization (GEOL 5599)

Geographic Visualization facilitates the interactive real-time display of geospatial data both spatially and temporally. This data can be the result of geodata analysis or data exploration of existing datasets. The power of geovisualization is the ability to allow users to visualize data in new ways that allows for scientific discovery and improved decision-making. This course explores various techniques, tools and the theory behind geovisualization. Students will have the opportunity to review relevant literature and experiment with new hardware and software visualization tools.Level: Graduate

Geotechnology Seminar (GEOL 4408/5508)

This seminar course will focus on reviewing topical literature from the field of geotechnologies. Students will have the opportunity to review and discuss key journal articles. Lectures will include guest speakers and student presentations with topics in geotechnology. Students will review best practices for preparing abstracts, annotated bibliographies and proposal writing. Levels: Undergraduate/Graduate
