GIS toolglossary

Welcome to the Raster Spatial Analysis self learning tool. On completion of this interactive learning module, students should have a strong grasp of raster clean-up algorithms and zonal operations used by raster based Geographical Information Systems.

There are four major components to this module: Specific Theory, Algorithms, Examples and Questions with Feedback. For best results, it is suggested that students work through all components of the module in sequential order.

Please select the component of your choice to begin:

Theory
Introductory theory and concepts, incorporating the algorithms used in raster reclassification and zonal operations.
Algorithms
Algorithms demonstrating the computational methods used by raster based GIS for raster spatial analysis.
Examples
Worked Examples of realistic scenarios where the above algorithms are used.
Questions With Feedback
Questions which require the student to apply knowledge learnt in the previous sections.
 
Note: Components of the interactive lessons require the Macromedia Shockwave plugin to run.
