Advising Track: Geographic Information Systems

Geographic Information Systems (GIS) capture, store, analyze and manage data and associated attributes that are spatially referenced to the Earth. GIS technology can be used for scientific investigations, resource management, asset management, environmental impact assessment, architecture and urban planning, cartography, criminology, history, sales, marketing, oil or mineral exploration, archaeology, geology, epidemiology and public health, demographics, history, and logistics, to name a few.
