Exploring GIS Fundamentals

Recently finished this fundamental course on Geographic Information System(GIS) on Coursera, conducted by UC Davis.

As I know UC Davis is very strong on geotechnical engineering as we all know when in UCLA. And it’s nice they have this course shared on coursera. During winter quarter 2016, UCLA geotech master program also introduced a course on GIS for the first time. Though I really wanted to take it, it clashed with two of my main courses so I missed it. In class, most students are from hydrology, only one or two from structure and geotech.

As later my interests turned to data analysis and programming, I find GIS very powerful comes to data visualization and manipulation. I believe there are a lot more if I finish this specialization.
