Geo-Spatial Technology

Assignments

The goal of this assignment section, is to get you thinking about how the exploration of geographical and spatial relationships ccan help you to understand issues or answer research questions. GIS is not just mapping information, it is about exploring the roles played by geography, the environment, and/or spatial relationships in issues of interest to policy makers, researchers, and community members. For some issues geography may be of no relevance, for other it might be one of many factors, and for some issues it is critical. Often the role of space, geography, geographical/spatial relationships should be based on evidence and a sound theoretical framework.
