FWCE 471/571: GIS for Natural Resource Scientist

Course Objectives

  • The course is designed for students with little to no GIS experience. The primary objective is to help you form a good understanding of how to work with digital geographic data. Using ESRI ArcGIS, you will develop the skills to locate and display spatial data, to edit existing data and to create new data sets. You will learn how to manage and display multiple data layers in an ArcGIS map document. You will also learn how to manage raster, vector and attribute data in geodatabases. The class uses real data from the natural resource fields so that you can discover where to find data and gain knowledge of the appropriate methods for data storage, editing, processing and analysis. Further, through encountering the imperfections of real world data, you will develop an appreciation of the problems associated with using geographic data and the importance of accurate and complete metadata.
