As we have for the past two summers, Bucknell’s LIT division will offer a series of summer workshops for faculty interested in hands-on instruction in GIS. Stipends of $400 will be offered to faculty for participating in each workshop. Please fill out this interest/registration form as soon as possible if you are interested in any of the following workshops.
Overview
Details – Spatial Statistics with ArcGIS & Geoda
The workshop ‘Spatial Statistics with ArcGIS and Geoda’ will be taught by Professor Jennifer Miller, Assistant Professor in the Department of Geography & Environment and Director of the GIScience Center at University of Texas at Austin. Below is a tentative outline of the 3-day workshop. Faculty will have an opportunity to work with their own data for part of the last day of the workshop.
Day 1: Introduction to Spatial analysis and Point pattern analysis
- 1st order vs 2nd order effects (density vs. distance)
- Nearest neighbor analysis, Ripley’s K statistics
- Interpreting results (z-scores, Monte Carlo simulation)
Day 2: (Global) Spatial pattern measurement and modeling
- Spatial autocorrelation analysis
- Conceptualizing spatial relationships
- Moran’s I, Getis-Ord General G statistic
- OLS Regression
- Model fittingModel diagnostics
- Residual analysis
Day 3: (Local) Spatial pattern measurement and modeling
- Local spatial autocorrelation analysis
- LISA, Gi* (Geoda software)Mapping/interpreting results
- Geographically weighted regression
- Spatial non-stationary
Details – Using ArcHydro for Water Resources Analysis
The workshop ‘Using ArcHydro for Water Resources Analysis’ is tentatively scheduled to be taught by Professor Venkatesh Merwade, Assistant Professor in the School of Civil Engineering at Purdue University and Director of the Geospatial Water Resources Institute. We are close to finalizing details on this workshop, so stay tuned for details on who will teach the workshop. Below is a tentative outline of the 3-day workshop. Faculty will have an opportunity to work with their own data for part of the workshop.
