8. Lecture 18 Topics (continued) Analytical Modeling Data Quality Issues GIS Project Development will be integrated through out the semester

9. Lecture 19 Assignments Labs – Eight to 10 lab exercises. – Lab exercises have differing point values (25-50 Points), depending upon the length and difficulty of the exercise. Project – The project should be implemented using GIS software. – The project can be related to your research, or be on another topic of interest.

16. Lecture 116 What is a Geographic Information System? Geographic Information System (GIS) – A computer- based system for the collection, storage, organization, maintenance, and analysis of spatially- referenced data, and the output of spatially- referenced information. – Data – Any collection of related facts; the basic elements of information. – Information - Data that have been processed to be useful; provides answers to "who", "what", "where", and "when" questions Information can only come from accurate data (GIGO).

17. Lecture 117 GIS Software Tools (the frustrating part) GIS started at universities as research tools – Harvard, Yale, Minnesota, Clark University GIS software have evolved to robust (sort of) tools capable of a wide variety of tasks Primary flavors ESRI (ArcGIS)Intergraph MicroimagesAutocadMapInfo ERDASIdrisiManifold GRASSGeoMedia

22. The Power of GIS The interaction between the database and the map, along with the ability to create graphs.

23. Lecture 123 What are the components of a GIS? We understand GIS to be computer facilitated system But it is NOT only software and hardware Also includes: Data – both spatial and aspatial Trained personnel Supporting Institution Protocols for use

24. Data for a GIS Spatial data – you can attach coordinate information. 2D maps (X,Y) Lecture 1 http://www.mappery.com/map-of/Hong-Kong-Hotel-Map-2 24

27. Lecture 127 What types of data are used in a GIS? Coordinate data Connection information Descriptive information Temporal information Images Documents URL’s

28. Lecture 128 What types of questions can be answered by a GIS? Where are particular features found? What geographic patterns exist? Where have changes occurred over a specified time period? Where do certain conditions apply? What will be the implications if an organization takes a certain action?

29. Lecture 129 GIS allows us to abstract information from the physical world and display it in layers or themes. It allows us to: Input and edit both spatial and attribute data. Display data on a screen or print a map. Analyze the data for making decisions. Create models and ask “what if”. How does a GIS answer spatial questions?

30. Lecture 130 How is spatial data represented in a GIS? Vectors Points, Lines & Areas/Polygons Raster Grids/Tesselations

31. Lecture 131 What is difference between a database management system and a database? A database management system (DBMS) is a software package with computer programs that controls the creation, maintenance, and use of a database. It allows organizations to conveniently develop databases for various applications. A database is an integrated collection of data records, files, and other objects http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Database_management_system
