Catalog Full Description
This certificate program is designed to provide working professionals with a basic understanding of what a geographic information system is, and teach them how to create and organize data, how to present the data in a cartographically pleasing manner, how to use Python to extend their GIS, and how to develop a web GIS application.
The ideal candidate for this certificate is a professional that is not entirely familiar with the principles of GIS, while their industry has adopted the use of GIS in their daily work, or a professional that is interested in using GIS technology to collect and analyze data in a meaningful way for their field of expertise.
If a student completes this certificate and decides to continue their GIS education at Redlands, the credits earned from these courses may be applied to either the MGIS or MS GIS degree program.
