This course introduces the underlying principles and methods of Geographical Information Systems (GIS). It examines the processes involved in the capture, storage, manipulation, analysis, presentation and output of digital geographical data in a GIS and provides opportunities for the development of practical skills in processing data using an industry standard GIS software package.
The course comprises a series of presentations and computer-based practical sessions using ESRI’s ArcGIS Pro software with example date sets taken from a variety of fields. Topics covered include: What is GIS, working with tables, visualising data, map production and basic analysis.
This course is intended for those who have little or no GIS knowledge or who wish to undertake some formalized training in ArcGIS Pro having been largely self-taught in the past.
