Environmental and Natural Resource Management
GIS have long been recognized as a valuable tool for resource management and environmental analysis. They provide a powerful environment for modeling natural processes and human impacts on them. This course surveys a number of dimensions of environmental analysis from basic inventory efforts to abstract modeling. Key datasets and data sources are identified. Case studies are presented and explored through hands-on exercises to instill a conceptual understanding of human – environment interactions and how they may be investigated in a GIS.
