Subject Description | The ability of vector- and raster-based Geographic Information Systems to analyse and manage environmental data is explored using application to environmental problems. GIS-based modelling is introduced to demonstrate the relationship between data precision and model-driven, improved, environmental decision making. Links are made between GIS and decision support tools to map land suitability, potential surfaces and trade-off analyses. |
Assessment | A series of weekly problems worth 40% of the grade, an examination worth 25% and a final project of 3000 - 4000 words. |
