This course introduces the fundamentals of Geographic Information Systems (GIS). Using the open-source GIS software QGIS, students will learn techniques for spatial data processing, analysis, and visualization.

The objectives of this course are: (1) to understand the basic concepts of GIS and its applications, and (2) to acquire skills in visualizing spatial data through map creation. The intended learning outcomes of this course are: (1) to master the basic operations of QGIS and gain the ability to create maps, and (2) to develop problem-solving skills using GIS.
