Update Link / Bad Link
|
This course is designed to teach analytical thinking in geological sciences using computing applications. A variety of tools will be used to study, image, and model geological science information and data. Computer hardware and networking basics are also covered, as well as graphics and visualization tools, including spread sheet programming, curve fitting, MATLAB, GMT, and building web pages. Throughout this course, data sets will be used from many different sub-disciplines in the Earth Sciences to learn different data processing, modeling, and imaging techniques.
