Courses for Adults:

Applications in GIS

Deliverable as complete courses for colleges, universities and technical schools, or in the form of workshops given by Digital Quest at NASA's Stennis Space Center or the location of your choice.

In the classroom-delivered configuration, the course is custom-tailored to your local region, and includes data, satellite imagery and aerial photography of your state, county and campus. 

The first half of the course has the student work on a "demonstration project," and in the second half the technology, process and methods are applied to the local community.

The courses in this series are:


STARS  -  Spatial Technology And Remote Sensing

STARS is targeted at Certification for the workforce.  It is a fully-developed "turn-key" certification program for high schools, colleges and universities, and is the first and most complete program of its kind.  Students will utilize a locally-customized geographic information system (GIS) to learn detailed information about their local community, and will master the use of ArcView tools.  At the end of the curriculum an exam is administered and a portfolio submitted for certification approval.  Instructors require no prior knowledge of GIS to teach this course; only basic computer skills.  STARS is comprised of three courses:
