spatial analysesWould you like to get creative, innovative and strategic ideas when collecting and processing data in your organization? We invite you to partner with our College of the Rockies students!
Student in this class will learn about the theory and practice of Geographical Information Systems (GIS), remote sensing of Earth system processes, and aerial photography, photogrammetry, and image interpretation.
Deliverables are negotiable, and will seek to align the needs of the learners and the organization.
Some final project deliverables might include:
- A 10-15 minute presentation on key findings and recommendations
- A detailed report including their research, analysis, insights and recommendations

Project Examples
Learners in groups of 3-5 will work with your company to identify your needs and provide actionable recommendations, based on their in-depth research and analysis.
Project activities that learners can complete may include, but are not limited to:
- Describing remote sensing and GIS theory and terminology;
- Describing sources for acquiring spatial data;
- Explaining the components of a georeferencing system;
- Applying Raster and Vector data models;
- Describing topology and its importance to spatial data modeling;
- Explaining the importance of database to GIS;
- Applying basic cartographic principles;
- Describing sources of spatial data error;
- Applying geoprocessing tools to solve problems;
- Demonstrating competence in industry standard GIS software (QGIS), aerial photography
- interpretation, and image assessment in application of real-world scenarios
Companies must answer the following questions to submit a match request to this experience:
Be available for a quick phone/virtual call with the instructor to initiate your relationship and confirm your scope is an appropriate fit for the experience.
Provide a dedicated contact person who is available for weekly/bi-weekly drop-ins to address learners’ questions as well as periodic messages over the duration of the project.
