Please inform all your friends, 'practical' education and certification in Esri's leading 10.2 release is a serious career switch-on!
There is no other software mastery on the planet that can create strength and wealth for an undergraduate/graduate with such power of flexibility in the future.

Follow PalmTree. He knows better. Cheers.

pls give me detail of opporunities in GIS. I like iT

GIS is wide. So for starters, I'll say you should get acquainted with the basics. Then you can progress from there. Also what's your discipline or perhaps your I.T related passion?

@Palmtree pls i am interested in the GIS training. Please kindly send me a mail containing your training module, duration, cost and address. Thanks. nittayoungson@gmail.com

Pls I need a well training institute that offer GIS course

burtheyseun: Pls I need a well training institute that offer GIS course

I don't understand you. Do you mean a good institute where you can learn quality GIS, GPS and Remote Sensing (Digital Image Processing)? If that's what you need and you can make it down to my office in Ibadan. There are various training modules that you can subscribe to. Send a mail to greenlandconsult89@gmail.com or call 08061185492 for more information

Please GiS gurus, I am working on my project and will need satellite images of a village outside minna Niger State for the years 2006, 2010, and 2014. Where do I get such images and how do I get it for free if possible.

Depends on the type of imagery you want to utilize. The type of imagery also depends on what the project is all about which I'm guessing is about Urban Sprawl or Land Use. Low resolution imagery (LandSat Tm or Etm) could be downloaded on global land cover website but the problem is its technicalities. The landsat has about 7 bands each with it's own function. However, you can get a high resolution imagery for free if you download the google earth software and connect to the internet.

Hope I have been able to assist. Do not hesitate to ask for more clarification. Regards.

Thanks sir. The project is about urban growth eating up agricultural land. I have tried Google Earth, the problem I encountered were:
The images were not up to date
The images dated 2006 were not as old as that

I don't know if there are any other options. I will check out the global land cover website. Thanks sir. I will email you for further consultations as I progress.

@PalmTree..
can a graduate of geophysics branch off into GIS? And if that is possible,what are the career opportunities?
send detailed info of training.
Thanks.

Opportunities abound! But my professional advice is not to branch off but introduce GIS to your specialization. It takes a lot to be a GIS expert (Structured knowledge and years of technical experience in several fields) I will send you our basic GIS module with the option of Remote Sensing.

Thanks

Feel free please. You can still use google earth imagery but you might need some guidance. You should mail me if you get stuck anytime.

PalmTree: Hello, fellow Nairalanders. It is no longer news that GIS is being used to enhance decision making in several industries. Now, for those who have some knowledge of the technology and others who don't, feel free to post your questions and I will do my best to answer your queries.

Can GIS be studied as an undergraduate course?

Liamm: Can GIS be studied as an undergraduate course?

Not in a Nigerian University for now. The closest you can get is Surveying and Geoinformatics. But GIS can be a minor in any of the environmental sciences.
