A workshop for faculty interested in learning about the use of Geographic Information Systems for teaching and research. <\/span><\/i> <\/p>\n
Introduction to Arcview and Geographic Information Systems<\/h6>\n

June 9-10, 2003
Rolvaag 477<\/p>\n

Led by Charles Umbanhowar, Jr. (Biology and Environmental Studies)<\/p>\n

Geographic Information Systems (GIS) provide the electronic means to create and query spatial data. Their uses may vary from the production of publication quality maps of a range of data (demographic, economic, ecological…) to more formal analyses and modeling of correlation and cause and effect. Participants will be introduced to different ways in which GIS can be integrated into the classroom and into research, drawing on examples from the social sciences, humanities, and sciences. <\/p>\n

The workshop is designed to introduce participants to the basics of the Arcview software and GIS. We will learn how to acquire maps from a variety of WWW sources, how to edit and display map data, as well as the rudiments of overlay and buffer analysis and simple image analysis. Information we will work with will include U.S. census data, EPA and MPCA pollution records, land-use and historical maps, and aerial photos. Participants will receive a copy of ‘Introduction to Arcview’ that includes a 6-9 month demonstration copy of the basic software. Handouts will be provided that describe many of the basic operations covered during the workshop. All participants completing the workshop will receive a stipend of $150 <\/p>\n

Tentative Schedule:
