Lecture
Geographic Information Systems: Introduction
Description
This lecture introduces the use of Geographic Information Systems (GIS) in wildlife conservation, explaining how rangers track and protect endangered species using drones and high-resolution imagery. It covers the acquisition, storage, analysis, and representation of geospatial data, as well as the role of GIS software in efficient data access and spatial analysis. The lecture also explores the complexities of organizing diverse geospatial data in databases and the advanced mapping techniques in three and four dimensions.
