Training Courses - Visualization and Analysis of Space-Time Data
If you are interested in attending this course please contact us
Focus:
Multi-disciplinary
Upon course completion, you will have
- The software you need to undertake exploratory spatio-temporal data analysis. All training participants will receive a student license of TerraSeer's Space-Time Intelligence System software to use during the class and take with you upon course conclusion.
- A workbook to review and recreate the course exercises at your own pace.
- A practical understanding about how to systematically carry out exploratory spatial data analysis, using the latest in spatial analytical tools.
This two day course offers an overview of techniques for the visualization and exploration of spatio-temporal pattern in geographic and temporal data. The course is aimed at those interested in going beyond current GIS to space-time datasets and exploration. Only basic knowledge of GIS is assumed.
The emphasis is on interpreting data effectively in a highly visual and interactive software environment based on dynamically linked windows. This is accomplished by stressing hands-on analysis of sample data sets. Sample datasets will include colon cancer patterns for African-American and white females and males in the southeastern United States, lung, prostate, and pancreatic cancer patterns at the national level, and geographic pattern in age structure in US counties.
The advanced course builds on the base created here, and adds the statistical quantification of spatial pattern.
