Gain proficiency in the mastery of Geographic Information Systems (GIS) via ArcGIS Desktop

Key Features

The course will teach you to implement some of the most important spatial data analysis techniques in ArcGIS Desktop
You learn to work with real spatial data
Carry our practical map making to display the results of spatial analysis
Learn about advanced topics such as geostatistics and carry them out on actual data

Book Description

This course teaches you the most important aspects of spatial data analysis using ArcGIS. It is highly beneficial for both those wanting to learn spatial data analysis and/or gain familiarity with the ArcGIS ecosystem

First, we'll start some basic GIS tasks like "Zooming". Then, we'll move into more complex processing tasks like "Geo-Statistics". We'll also deal with some theoretical concepts related to Spatial Data Analysis, and then we'll focus on implementing some of the most common GIS techniques (all the way showing you how to execute these tasks in ArcGIS Desktop).

The stuff you'll learn from this course will be extremely useful in terms of you being able to implement it on future Spatial Data projects you'll be working on. The course is a hands-on training with real data. It's a step by step course covering both the theory and application of Spatial Data Analysis. This is one of the most comprehensive courses on this topic.
