GD2-1 - Unsystematic methods
  • Compare and contrast the typical spatial arrangements of land parcels characteristic of early English, Spanish, and French settlements in the U.S.
  • State a metes and bounds land description of a property parcel delineated in a land survey drawing
  • Discuss advantages and disadvantages of unsystematic land partitioning methods in the context of GIS
DA6-2 - User interfaces
  • Design an application-level software/user interface based on user requirements
  • Create user interface components in available development environments
OI2-6 - User support
  • Develop a plan to provide user support to aid in the implementation process
  • Illustrate how the failure of successfully engaging user support can affect the outcome of a GIS implementation project
GS3-1 - Uses of geospatial information in government
  • List and describe the types of data maintained by local, state, and federal governments
  • Explain how geospatial information might be used in a taking of private property through a government’s claim of its right of eminent domain
  • Describe how geospatial data are used and maintained for land use planning, property value assessment, maintenance of public works, and other applications
  • Explain the concept of a “spatial decision support system”
DA1-1 - Using models to represent information and processes
  • Define a homomorphism as a mathematical property
  • Evaluate existing systems to determine whether they are adequate representations
  • Assess the data quality needed for a new application to be successful
  • Recognize the advantages and disadvantages of using models to study and manage the world as opposed to experimenting in the world directly
  • Describe the ways in which an existing model faithfully represents reality and the ways in which it does not
