Introduction to GIS and Spatial Data Analysis

This class is a module offered to doctoral researchers under the framework "Docotral Certificate Program in Agricultural Economics". The class is an introductory course to GIS and spatial data analysis.

This course introduces the basic concepts, methods, and software tools for the acquisition, manipulation, visualisation, exploration, and analysis of spatial data. The ultimate aim of the course of to make students interested in spatial data analysis and to raise awareness of the potentials and pitfalls in spatial data analysis. We will provide a mix of lectures addressing basic theoretical knowledge of GIS and spatial data analysis, presentations with applications of spatial data analysis, and practical hands-on exercises using mainly QGIS (open source software) and GeoDa.
