PLSCS 6200 - Spatial Modeling and Analysis

(crosslisted) NTRES 6200  
     
Spring. 4 credits. Student option grading.

Prerequisite: PLSCS 4110  and PLSCS 4200 , or equivalent, or permission of instructor.

D. Rossiter.

Theory and practice of applying geo-spatial data for resource inventory and analysis, biophysical process modeling, and land surveys. Emphasizes use and evaluation of spatial analytical methods applied to agronomic and environmental systems and processes. Laboratory section is used to process, analyze, and visualize geo-spatial data of interest to the student, ending in a comprehensive student project.

Outcome 1: Analyze complex spatial problems with appropriate theory, statistical methods and computational tools.

Outcome 2: Organize data analysis as reproducible research (“literate data analysis”).

Outcome 3: Process and visualize spatial data; with emphasis on open-source computer programs and publically-available data.
