课程名称：Spatial Analysis and Modeling
主讲教师：Dr. Fang Qiu
Professor in GIS and Remote Sensing
授课时间：10月22日（周三）-11月5日（周三），13:00-15:30
（周六、周日休息）
授课地点：资环楼354室
Course Description:
A graduate level course with treatment of more advanced topics of spatial analysis in a GIS environment. Topics covered include raster-based cartographic modeling, 3-d visualization and analysis, geostatistics interpolation. Student will be acquainted with state-of–the-art software through hands-on laboratory experiences.
Learning Outcomes:
Upon completing this class, students will be able to:
Understand the raster data model and how it differs from the vector data model.
Apply local, focal, zonal and global operations to appropriate problems.
Perform specialized analysis with viewshed and watershed model tools.
Apply various global, local and geostatistics spatial interpolation methods to derive a measurement surface.
Construct models to solve sophisticated real world problems by combining various tools.
