Geospatial Science
• Study of the spatial aspects of terrestrial and geographic datasets through scientific methods involving software and analysis

Why Make Maps on a Computer?
• Digital storage• Easy to update• Easy to add information• Accurate• Simple to adapt for
multiple users and multiple media
![Page 4: Introduction to Spatial Computing Dr. Doug Oetter, Associate Professor Dept. of History, Geography, and Philosophy Friday, November 12, 2010 12:30-3:30.](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022103015/551646765503469d698b47d0/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Map Making Methods
• Draw by hand• Adapt from another source• Pre-made, editable map software
– Cartesia & Adobe Illustrator• Geographic Information Systems (GIS)
– Complete spatial database for mapping and geographic inquiry

Geographic Information
Systems
• Hardware– Digitizer, computer,
plotter– Global Positioning
Satellite• Software
– Grass, MapInfo, ArcView, ArcGIS
• Data– Analog data (maps,
tables, images)– Digitial data (shapefiles,
coverages, grids, raster images)
• Users– Training is available!
• Methods

1. Problem Statement
• Problem-Based Learning (PBL) is a guided-design pedogogical style based on the assumption that students are motivated to solve real-world problems and will actively work to acquire the knowledge needed to solve them. – Present the problem statement. Introduce an "ill-structured"
problem or scenario to students. They should not have enough prior knowledge to solve the problem. This simply means they will have to gather necessary information or learn new concepts, principles, or skills as they engage in the problem-solving process.

2. Data Acquisition
• Resource List– List what is needed. Presented with a problem,
students will need to find information to fill in missing gaps. A second list is prepared under the heading: "What do we need to know?" These questions will guide searches that may take place on-line, in the library, and in other out-of-class searches.

Collecting Geographic Data
• Collect any type of data required– Be sure to capture location using a coordinate
system– Think points, lines, and polygons– Think ‘surface of the Earth’
• Coordinated capture system– Linking camera to GPS unit using time stamps– http://hercules.gcsu.edu/~doetter/geo/kmz/Lower_Oconee_River.kmz

Excel
• Spreadsheets allow data organization– Columns for field (thematic) data– Rows for records (events)
