Spatial Analytics

Spatial analytics is an MSc level course that introduces you to different analysis approaches and methods of spatio-statistical analysis, geostatistics, map algebra and geovisual analysis. After the course, you can identify appropriate analysis approaches for different geospatial tasks, and describe data needs and suitable methods for the given analysis process. You can discuss the strengths and limitations of the methods.
