CUSP-GX 6009 Advanced Spatial Analytics

3 Credits

In this course, students will learn about ongoing advances in the field of spatial analysis, particularly in current research and development contexts, including (1) process-based spatial modeling, (2) time-enabled spatial analysis, and (3) spatial analysis on new forms of spatial data. Although the class will explore several of these topics using software-based labs, the course is rooted in an exploration of the methodology underpinning spatial analysis and the derivation of analysis schemes. Students are expected to have prior coursework experience in Geographic Information Systems and spatial analysis. Example sets in the course will focus on urban analysis.
