This module comprises a mixture of lectures and workshops. This module aims to show how various elements of Geographical Information Science can be brought together to solve real-world problems. The tools you need are part of the functionality of your chosen GIS software; sometimes they may exist as other software, and sometimes you have to create the tools yourself. This module is intended to extend the theoretical aspects of GISc into practice by taking a problem oriented approach. Topics covered include the nature of GIScience, spatial data, regionalisation, spaces, geodemographics, spatial models, internet GIS. There will be presentations from external speakers.
