Description

This course develops skills in geospatial data science and is designed to form understanding of fundamental algorithms and code libraries that are used to manipulate, analyse, and map spatial data, and to explore how they are implemented. Students will use the Python programming language. The course is largely lab and project based, with context and theoretical frameworks presented in lectures while labs guide hands-on development.

Prerequisites

GISC101 (preferred) or GEOG205/DIGI205 or COSC121, or
equivalent. Recommended preparation: This course requires regular programming for spatial data so background skills in these areas are highly desirable.
