CUSP-GX 7002 Urban Spatial Analytics

3 Credits
In this course, students will learn how spatial analysis can support the exploration of geographical properties, patterns, and phenomena in urban context. The course will cover the foundations of spatial analysis in the spatial sciences, examining in particular how spatial science influences data collection, data modeling, data analysis, and data interpretation. The course will explore the derivation of core spatial statistics and geostatistics that are routinely used in geographical analysis. The course will also examine the use of spatial analysis in supporting spatial modeling. Students are expected to have undertaken prior coursework in Geographic Information Systems (GIS). Labs will focus on how to run spatial analysis methods from GIS platforms. Example sets in the course will focus on urban applications.
