- Class Description:
- With recent advances in hardware, software, and sensor technologies, the field of Geography has entered a new digital and data rich era. This has led to increasing interest in the design and development of interactive maps and dynamic geographic visualizations in 2D, 3D, and Web environments. The need for animated and interactive maps is growing more than ever before, as evidenced by current trends in television news, online newsletters, weather forecast presentations, modern museum displays, real estate portals, tourism maps, story maps, as well as in scientific presentations. Geovisualization, short for geographic visualization, refers to a set of tools and techniques that are used to visualize spatial data, communicate geographic information, and support the analysis of geospatial data through the use of interactive visualization. This course equips students with the knowledge and advanced technical skills needed to design effective maps and create dynamic and interactive visualizations for geospatial phenomena and spatiotemporal processes.
- Learning Objectives:
- The overall goal of this course is to introduce students to the concepts, principles, and underlying technologies of Geovisualization and cartographic design. If you participate fully and complete this course, by the end, you should be able to- discuss underlying principles of Geovisualization and outline its scope and applications.- identify and discuss different types of Geovisualization techniques and their suitability for visual exploration and mapping geospatial phenomena and their patterns.- develop interactive maps and geographic visualizations in 2D, 3D, and Web environments for both spatial and spatiotemporal data sets.- locate and use suitable commercial software packages and open source tools for Geovisualization.- describe and apply the principles of map abstraction, cartographic animation, 3D visualizations, and Web maps.- design and create interactive, dynamic, and abstract maps using programming with Processing.
