  • GEOG 4463 - Earth Analytics Data Science Bootcamp
    Secondary Instructor - Summer 2018 / Fall 2019 / Fall 2020 / Fall 2021
    Learn key skills to automate data processing and visualization workflows that support both repeatable analysis and collaborative project approaches using scientific programming, version control and project management tools. Covers working with heterogeneous, large spatio-temporal data derived from space, airborne and ground based sensors and other sources. Gain applied experience through group projects that address real world problems. Same as GEOG 5463.
  • GEOG 4563 - Earth Analytics
    Primary Instructor - Fall 2018 / Spring 2020
    Introduce students to major unanswered questions in Earth science and to the analytical tools, including data management, analysis and visualization, necessary to explore 'big data' from a suite of sensors. Aligns with Earth Lab, a new initiative of the University's Grand Challenge (http://www.colorado.edu/grandchallenges/) to use our expertise in space-based observation to address our world's most pressing problems. Same as GEOG 4563.
  • GEOG 5100 - Special Topics: Geography
    Primary Instructor - Summer 2020 / Summer 2021
    Covers various topics outside of the normal curriculum; offered intermittently depending on student demand and availability of faculty. May be repeated up to 9 total credit hours.

  • GEOG 5563 - Earth Analytics
    Primary Instructor - Fall 2018 / Spring 2020 / Spring 2021 / Spring 2022
    Introduce students to major unanswered questions in Earth science and to the analytical tools, including data management, analysis and visualization, necessary to explore 'big data' from a suite of sensors. Aligns with Earth Lab, a new initiative of the University's Grand Challenge (http://www.colorado.edu/grandchallenges/) to use our expertise in space-based observation to address our world's most pressing problem. Comparable programming course work may be substituted for GEOG 5463 with instructor approval. Same as GEOG 4563.
  • GEOG 5663 - Earth Analytics Applications
    Secondary Instructor - Spring 2019
    Develop expertise in finding, organizing, managing and processing large, heterogeneous, spatio-temporal data to address a real-world problem. Students will work collaboratively on semi-guided science project. Students gain critical skills required to understand data structures, utilize APIs, extract insight from data and understand how uncertainty propagates. Culminates with a formal presentation of project results. May be repeated up to 3 total credit hours.
