These are GIS courses offered on-line, typically for paying customers, whereby a specific structure is followed.  This structure  includesPowerpoint lectures, exercises, DEMOs and quizzes.

  • Southwest Georgia Technical College - Applied Geospatial Solutions in Natural Resources. An introduction to GIS with an emphasis being on natural resource problems.

    This is a hands-on, exercise-based GIS course that explores the range of functionality of ArcGIS; the course has been tailored to aptly benefit those working in conservation and natural resources, but may also broadly apply to professionals outside these fields. We will explore essential tools and techniques for creating, working with, visualizing, and managing geographic data.

    In particular, this course will provide you with experience using various GPS units and how to integrate GPS derived data into a GIS. Additionally, we will cover the fundamentals of map creation, template development, and sharing/dissemination of your map products. We will not exhaustively lecture or cover definitions and mundane GIS terms; we would rather focus on explaining “real-world” application of a GIS and provide you the opportunity to gain experience through exercises and mini-projects.

  • This is a hands-on, exercise-based GIS course that explores the range of  functionality of ArcGIS beyond the out-of-the-box geospatial solutions. The course has been tailored to aptly benefit those working in conservation and natural resources, but may also  broadly apply to  professionals outside these fields.

    Python, an object-oriented programming language, will serve as the focus of this course. Using Python we will explore advanced tools and techniques for creating, working  with, visualizing, and managing geographic data through:  Advanced Geoprocessing, Batch Processing and Model Builder; and Introduction to the Basics of Python; Creation of GIS Tools and Scripts; and ArcGIS Toolbox Functionality including importing, creating and sharing scripts.

    You do not need to have extensive programming experience or vast knowledge of  Python (we will assume you have  little to no programming experience) to  take this class but you should have a relatively good understanding of and adequate experience with ArcGIS.

  • This course is an intermediate user-level GIS course and covers topics such as rubbersheeting, editing, and GeoDatabase management.

  • This course outlines the underlying principles of GIS and provides hands-on training through demos and exercises.
