Students will learn how to work with geospatial data to understand and address environmental issues. Popular GIS tools (such as ArcGIS) will be used to create maps for the effective communication of many types of environmental data.
Relevant applications in areas such as climate science, biodiversity monitoring, and human-ecosystem interactions will be explored. More advanced topics such as geospatial statistics, gap-filling, and filtering will also be covered. This course will count as a quantitative reasoning requirement toward the BS-ES degree; also counts toward the CAS QRDL requirement.
