GIS 540
Geospatial Programming Fundamentals
Section: 601

Course Description

This course equips students with essential skills for geospatial programming. Topics include computer programming to call geospatial processing tools, batch process, performing file reading/writing, and generating displays. To support these tasks, students learn basic programming concepts, such as pseudocode, flow-control, code reuse, and debugging. In the final project, students streamline GIS workflows and customize GIS user interfaces. Familiarity with GIS software is required, but no prior programming experience is expected.
