Introduction:
The objective of the following proposal is to fulfill the requirements of a
GIS application course (Advanced GIS and Web GIS) and to obtain the
GIS certificate by my August graduation deadline. Outlined in this
proposal are my academic interests, course objectives, and assignment
schedule for an advanced web GIS applications course.
Methodology:
Course work will be completed as an independent study during the
summer semester (May 11th -August 8th). I will be working with Trent
Lobdell (community planner), to further develop a GIS web application
that was introduced in the PLAN6091 course. I will report my progress
and assignments to Trent and Professor Wang by the designated due
dates. I also propose to develop a blog and publish weekly posts about
my progress and project work, including links to troubleshooting tips,
tutorials and resources that I discover.
Course Objectives:
I am interested in gaining knowledge in the function, design and
applicability of geo-spatial technologies. This includes preparing and
organizing spatial data/information for its use and accessibility on the
web. I have a basic understanding and knowledge of HTML and CSS,
but over this course I will educate myself on JavaScript and other
various web-authoring tools for web GIS.
By the end of the course I will have further developed an Arc Map
Online GIS web application that incorporates custom spatial data
layers, and an aesthetically appealing and functional user interface
with widgets and interactive API features. This web application will
help connect people to available assistance and will streamline the
referral process for assistance providers.
Course Requirements:
