GIS and Remote Sensing Classes in Fall 2002

GIS Applications for Civil and Environmental Engineering
(Fall 2002 TR 15:30-16:45)
CGN 4321/5320

The course is intended to provide an introduction to the features and capabilities of GIS. The focus of this course is to demonstrate the usefulness of GIS to solve problems in various civil and environmental engineering disciplines, and to allow students to develop an understanding of important GIS concepts. Students will also become familiar with ArcView and gain basic Arc/Info skills through the development of a course project.View website.
Instructor: FANG-ZHAO

Remote Sensing in the Earth Sciences
(Fall 2002 S 08:00 - 10:45 Class/11:00 - 14:00 Lab)
GLY 5754

Remote Sensing is a discipline, which concerns itself with the aquisition of information about the surface of the Earth. This course is designed to provide undergraduate and graduate students with a solid background on Remote Sensing data collection techniques as well as Image Interpretation. Therefore, the laboratory section of this course is highly recommended to all students. In addition to the lab, my regular lectures will also include hands on activities on Image Processing and Interpretation. Graduate students will be required to propose and complete a class project. The format of this project will be discussed in class. Students are strongly encouraged to suggest their own topic.

GIS Analysis Special Topics in Environmental Studies
(Fall 2002 MW 15:30- 16:45)
EVR 4934/5935

This course is intended to provide an introduction to the functionalities of the popular desktop GIS program - ArcView 3.2, as well as the basic concepts of GIS and DBMS. The focus will be on data analysis and manipulation in such platforms, in order for the students to understand the data acquisition, preparation and manipulation in the areas of socioeconomic, demographic, and environmental studies. Basic understanding of NT environment and MS. Office Suite required. ArcView Image Analysis and Spatial Analyst are introduced in this course for graduate and advanced students. View website.
