Spring 2018 - This is an extremely interesting class and professor Christou does an amazing job of teaching it. Knowing what to do with spatial data is an increasingly important skill, and in this class you'll learn how to analyze if there are trends in spatial data, make predictions, create heat maps, contour maps, etc. Dr. Christou is one of the best instructors in the department and you will walk away with rigorous and practical knowledge.
