Course Description
This course aims to provide students with a thorough understanding of the
capabilities of GIS, as well as the practical skills to carry out GIS
analysis in the context of mass appraisal of real property.
The course covers the following topics: representation of geographic
information, spatial analysis methods and tools (such as map algebra,
buffering, overlay and spatial querying), multi-criteria evaluation, spatial
statistics, cartography and geographic visualisation,
error propagation, approaches to valuing real property. Lectures and
exercises will cover both theoretical and practical examples.
Laboratory exercises
Exercises will be held in Fagott, Maclean and
V27t to v29t computer rooms, Students will have access to computer rooms
through the KTH-account when the course starts. Exercises will be conducted
using ESRI’s ArcGIS and Clark Labs’ IDRISI
GIS software.
Students should work
two in a group and submit group reports for each exercise when asked for
and for the final project.
To the end of the course a poster presentation seminar is required.
Exercises will be randomly assessed.
10 Bonus points toward
the exam will be given to students who submit and pass all their
lab/project reports.
5 Bonus points toward the exam will be given to students who present their
poster before the deadlines.
Final project
One of the requirements for this course is for students to design and carry
out their own GIS project. The work on this project will be done
independently (in pairs) and in own time. Help will be provided during
occasional meetings (see the schedule for more info on these, attendance is
not obligatory during these times, the idea is that you work on your
project whenever YOU have time). During these meetings, a teacher will be
available in lab to answer students' questions.
