GeoData Center For more than 10 years, the GeoData Center has participated in collaborative interdisciplinary research for the UWF community and local, nonprofit and private entities in Northwest Florida.
Explore the Center. Prior to enrollment, students should be competent with Windows operating system including: storage, copying and management of multiple data types, managing multiple windows and applications and discipline to save work frequently; basic competence with ArcGIS and Microsoft Excel is recommended. Students will gain an interdisciplinary understanding of cartographic representation and visualization with hands on applications using cutting-edge GIS and graphic design software to create purpose tailored maps.
Applied skills emphasizing the fundamentals of aerial photograph interpretation and basics of multiband spectral reconnaissance of the environment-multispectral photography, infrared, microwave scanning and multifrequency radar systems. Application includes their uses in the study of cultural and biophysical phenomena.
Material and supply fee will be assessed for corresponding lab. This course is designed to familiarize students with the fundamentals of remote sensing and photo interpretation through hands-on techniques with aerial photographs and satellite imagery based on real-world applications. Both active and passive sensors will be discussed in lecture.
The course is broken up into two distinct sections. The first five weeks are spent interpreting digital aerial photographs; the rest of the semester is spent examining and manipulating digital data from satellites and other remote sensors.
The lecture will focus on the history, technology, concepts, processes and applications of aerial photography and remote sensing. The labs are structured to complement the material and readings assigned in lectures. Please consult with the course instructor for any questions regarding these prerequisite concepts. Offered concurrently with GIS , graduate students will be assigned additional work. In today's technology-driven world, we are fortunate to have access to many tools with which to analyze and explore digital spatial data.
During this course, students will learn to use programming techniques to create applications that perform fundamental spatial analysis and automation tasks, such as geoprocessing, editing, database management, projecting data and map creation. The course will focus primarily on using the Python programming language within the context of Esri's desktop GIS environment. Offered as a stand-alone course online and concurrently with GIS where graduate students will be assigned additional work.
Permission is required. Basic competency with ArcGIS software is required. This course will serve as an introduction to archaeological applications of GIS technology and data management and analysis. Students will learn how to compile, transform, analyze and present sources of archaeological and historical data, and will utilize this information in GIS for cultural resources interpretation, management and predictive modeling.
Additionally, this course is designed to reinforce best practices for collecting spatially-related data on anthropological archaeology projects. Restricted to students in the online GIS Certificate program. Major components of the course include computer representation of geographic information, the construction of GIS databases, spatial analysis with GIS, application areas of GIS and social and management issues that concern GIS.
A generic process for applying GIS techniques in problem solving is introduced, and several case studies of GIS applications in environmental and social domains will be analyzed.
This is a good way to have your work seen by professionals in the GIS field. Rules and details are below. You can also email me Brett Haskell at bhaskell uwf.
Monday, October 22, All current GIS students are encouraged to attend. Monday, October 8, We're Back! We will continue to monitor and accept student posts. We'll also be highlighting the "Student Spotlight". If you feel like your map project is innovative or unique, let your professor know. We can help you get it posted, to showcase your work. Module Supervised Classification The blog postings for Week 10 illustrated that a number of students had a good understanding of how to use Erdas Imagine to perform a supervised classification on multispectral satellite imagery.
However, Ashlee Malone's blog was especially good and stood out from the rest. The capstone course must be taken 2 times over 2 full-term semesters totaling 6 credit hours where students complete the project in 2 parts: Capstone Planning 3 credit hours and Capstone Execution 3 credit hours. The capstone can be administrative, programmatic, or research focused. The capstone course serves as documentation of the student's personal mastery of professional competencies.
It is designed to be an integrative experience for Professional Science Masters students. GIS Capstone Project - The capstone project includes a written paper and a public oral presentation of the project. Students will need to identify a client contact for their project and maintain communication with them all the way through the capstone project process. Also, students will need to link their GIS capstone to the client's organizational mission.
The organization can range from a small non-profit to a large multinational corporation. The capstone project should affirm the student's ability to think critically and creatively, to solve practical problems, to make ethical decisions, communicate effectively, and to draw on coursework where relevant.
If you do not have a GIS background, 15 credit hours of foundational proficiencies courses are required and can be taken alongside the business classes. Foundational proficiencies do not count towards the degree. Many students enter with no previous GIS course work.
