GIS 510 - Geospatial Pattern Analysis


Summer (3) Staff

Spatial patterns, like the clustered results of an electoral outcome map, hot spots of disease infestation, or the uneven distribution of fresh produce venues in a city, are the outcome of important social and environmental processes and give us clues about the causes, impacts and the potential actions that can help enhance or inhibit them. Geospatial technology, analytical methods and visual capabilities provide a crucial toolkit to identify, extract, measure, analyze, and interpret spatial patterns, as well as to communicate analytical results in compelling visual ways according to various medium and to diverse audiences. This course is designed to cover key spatial pattern analytical techniques, their interpretation and effective visual representation.
