APPLIED GIS IN PHYSICAL GEOGRAPHY
APPLIED GIS IN PHYSICAL GEOGRAPHY
2010 Fall Term
3 Units
Geography 460
The course focuses on the use of GIS to better understand the physical processes shaping the earth's surface and characteristics of the atmosphere. Because physical geography covers such a broad range of topics, it will be necessary to review the physical processes associated with each (e.g. landform formation, biogeography, patterns of severe weather, etc.) before applying GIS. Thus, the course combines traditional lecture style format with weekly meetings in departmental computer labs equipped with the latest GIS software. Grading is heavily based on completion of labs on time and quality of GIS outputs.
Other Requirements: PREREQ: GEOGRPY 210 AND GEOGRPY 370
