This course focuses on building a GIS base. It addresses theoretical issues regarding data models and data structures used in GIS and considers the processing required to input data from a variety of sources, register map layers, transform coordinate systems, and edit and clean a multi-map-sheet, multi-theme data base. Prereg: PLAN/GEOG 255
