Course content

2 sections • 20 lectures • 4h 5m total length

  • What is GIS?9:11

    Explore the fundamentals of geographic information systems, including data models, coordinate systems, and geospatial attributes. Learn to navigate ArcMap, work with data layers, perform spatial analysis, and design maps.

  • Data Models13:02

    Explore vector and raster data models in GIS, including points, lines, polygons, and gridded rasters. Learn how attributes, coordinates, and cell size shape discrete and continuous data analyses.

  • Managing Data11:53
  • Navigating the ArcMap Software12:51

    Navigate ArcMap software to pan and zoom through data layers, save documents, and explore toolbox tools, properties, and help resources.

  • Working with Vector Data Layers10:28

    Learn to select vector data features by rectangle, polygon, attributes, or location, then export the selected features to new data layers for hydrology analysis.

  • Analysis Tools11:24

    Learn to use ArcMap analysis tools, focusing on buffering and clipping vector data. See how 500-meter river buffers and clipped hospitals illustrate proximity analysis in a Costa Rica example.

  • Symbolizing Data I11:19

    Learn to symbolize vector data in ArcMap by editing symbology, changing colors, shapes, and outlines, and symbolizing by categories or quantities to craft clear map layouts.

  • Symbolizing Data II9:49

    Explore raster symbology in ArcGIS Pro: apply additive color schemes and classify elevation data into categories using eight classes, equal interval, natural breaks, or geometrical interval.

  • Creating Map Layouts I10:07

    Switch from data view to layout view in arc map to create a final map layout, adjusting scale, extent, and centering the main image for export to pdf or image.

  • Creating Map Layouts II14:49

    Create final map layouts by adding legend, scale bar, north arrow, and title, then export as PDF or image. Use the Costa Rica data set and map inserts for close-ups.

Requirements

  • ArcGIS licence
  • Access to a computer

Description

Hi, nice meeting you!


We are happy to have a chance at showing you what a GIS system can do!


In our course, you will learn to use the basic GIS tools inside ArcGIS, ArcGIS Pro, and ArcGIS Online which is the leading GIS software.

The second part of the course will introduce you to ArcGIS Pro, the wonderful world of hydrology, remote sensing, and land cover. Will teach you how to display a watershed delineation, create the map in ArcGIS Pro and also create a map story in ArcGIS Online.


If you are looking for a great introductory course, then look no further!


Together with our teacher, Sam, we are here to guide you, and offer support to any questions or curiosities you may have!


Finally, some great resources are ArcGIS online documentation, available on the ESRI website.


According to Wikipedia, A geographic information system (GIS) is a type of database containing geographic data (that is, descriptions of phenomena for which location is relevant), combined with software tools for managing, analyzing, and visualizing those data. In a broader sense, one may consider such a system to also include human users and support staff, procedures and workflows, the body of knowledge of relevant concepts and methods, and institutional organizations. Information systems.


In our high video and content quality course you will learn everything you need to learn about the basic ArcGIS tools, starting with the basic GIS concepts, what is a Geographical Information Systems, a basic understanding of GIS data models, navigating the ArcGIS software, basic GIS tools for spatial analysis, adding data to a map, symbolizing the data, and creating the map layout!


GIS tells you where you and the points of interest are located, ie: the place on a map; what a location is, by providing some key features in the form of attributes.


By taking our GIS course, your place on the map of GIS students will be more visible. You will improve your skills, make your CV stand out from others, increase your chances of getting a great job that you are passionate about, and constantly evolve in your professional career.


Best wishes!

Your GIS teachers!
