Please I am sorry for not coming back to sort your questions, work has been hectic and I never got your mail.

Thanks for being ready to help. I've overcome the problem of finding maps. I'm currently about to begin geospatial analysis. I will be delving into landscape metrics soon. AWMSI etc, I will mail you when I run into any problem especially with that Spatial Analyst extention.

What is your discipline? Remote sensing is the science of generating data from the earth using space based satellites. But what we do for starters is Digital Image Processing(developing info from the images taken from outer space).









I read geology,pls sir , i want to know the application of satellite remote sensing and the relationship between gis and remote sensing

Application of Remote Sensing is wide, I will recommend specialized training.

Remote Sensing is one of the numerous data capturing techniques in GIS. Other techniques include Aerial Photography and GPS.

The applications of GIS to Agricultue is very wide.

GIS is used to analyze soil quality and crop yield. Flood hazard management e.t.c.

There is an analysis called spatial interpolation. With this tool, you can analyze the soil structure, soil quality and soil suitability of a wide area with just the soil samples of few points.

It is usually hard to explain GIS applications to a "lay man" but I hope I have tried. Please if you need more explanation, I will be willing to do so but that will be later. Please bear with me.

Web mapping..u mean web gis?....as regards dat, its a new phase of the gis world with the help of the cloud technology.... its shifted gis from the desktop environment to the cloud environment I.e the internet ..various app cld be used in publishing ur map, among te few are the arcgis online with a month tria version .u cld try the supergis also.

Can a chemistry graduate go for the GIS training? If yes, how much is it and what are the job prospects like?

my email addy is adhasarrived@yahoo.com
Re: What Can Geographic Information Systems (GIS) Do For You? by PalmTree(m): 6:50pm On Dec 11, 2014
Sorry house, I have been busy of late. I sincerely appreciate Packup for his brilliant ideas and I urge people to listen to him as he seems like one who knows his onions. For the Chemistry graduate, yes you can undergo a GIS training but if you are not considering a career switch then your current or intended line of work must require GIS for me to recommend any training package. On the contrary, go online and research professional certification that will further your cause career wise.

Thanks
