Abstract

Introduction to the fundamentals of Geospatial Technology, including Creating Data, Remote Sensing & Aerial Photographs, and Basic Analysis Techniques through a series of lectures and hands-on computer-based exercises. This course is designed to be used as a stand-alone course to complement other disciplines or as an entry level course into a geospatial program. Course content is based upon the United States Department of Labor�۪s Geospatial Technology Competency Model for entry level geospatial occupations including Geospatial or GIS Technicians and Technologists. Note: A companion course (GST101AA Introduction to Geospatial Technology: Fundamentals of GIS, Spatial Data Models, Coordinate Systems, & Displaying Data) begins the sequence of topics to include Geographic Information Systems (GIS), cartography, remote sensing, and spatial analysis
