GEOG498I/788I

Are you still looking for a class to take? Did you drop a class because you were looking for something a little more interesting? Have you already taken every other GIS course that GEOG offers? Look no further than this great course offered on Tuesday from 12:30pm–1:45pm.

GEOG498I/788I: Topical Investigations: Data Structures for Geospatial Computing
The aim of the course is to familiarize the student with the fundamentals of geospatial representations, such as spatial indexes and network data structures, and with techniques for manipulating geospatial information for geographic information systems, for spatially-based decision systems and location-based services. The main topics will be vector-based map representation and querying techniques, manipulation and analysis of terrain models, network representations for applications to road networks and social networks, scalable representations for big geospatial data. Students with some programming background will highly benefit from this course.
