| 課程簡述 | This course will focus on introducing students how they can apply geographic information system technology to analyze target issues, such as problems related to natural resource management. Topics covered include introduction to operate ArcGIS, identifying and understanding sources of spatial information and datasets, the formulation of the analyzing framework, ArcGIS application for solving the problems, spatial analysis capabilities, and also other toolkits such as Google Earth may be introduced and used to aim the analysis. | ||||||||

| For general outcomes, students are expected to learn : (1) Identify data needs relating to target issues and appropriate processing framework in the context of a GIS project. (2) Formulate and assess spatial models and their applicability for solving problems . (3) Design maps as a form of visual communication according to cartographic principles. (4) Develop a reasonable executing plan and timelines that can lead to a desired project outcome. (5) Display a recognition of the responsibility of adhering to ethical standards in decision‐making on behalf of clients and the public. (6) Interpret the analyzing findings and deliver a technical report that outlines problems and suggests potential solutions. For specific outcomes, students are expected to deliver an individual final project in a context of GIS and/or spatial analysis and present results in a poster as professional practicum. |
