ArcGIS is the most advanced Geographic Information System (GIS) software available, and is the standard in spatial informatics, environmental science, geography, and economics. We will learn how to use ArcMap to load, analyze, and export geographically referenced data for publication. Analyses will include spatially merging datasets, geolocating addresses, route and distance analyses, creating buffers, and more.  No experience is necessary, and no software needs to be in advance.
