What is Geographic Information Science (GISc)?

If you have ever used a digital map, such as those available from Google or MapQuest, you have used this technology.

Geographic Information Science (GISc) is the foundation of Geographic Information Systems (GIS). It is the general term for mapping technologies used by business, government, and education.

GISc integrates spatial data sets in the form of:

  • digital maps
  • digital aerial photos
  • remotely sensed imagery
  • global positioning system (GPS) coordinates

The technologies are used to assess, plan, and manage many facets of society, including:

  • agriculture
  • population growth
  • natural resource management
  • economic development
  • energy production and transmission
  • air and water pollution
  • business marketing and site location
  • access to medical care
  • city planning
  • building design
  • urban infrastructure

What is a Graduate Certificate in Geographic Information Science?

To keep up with the national demand for qualified GISc professionals, the University of North Dakota has launched an online Geographic Information Science (GISc) Graduate Certificate Program. It gives you a solid theoretical foundation in GISc and the state-of-the-art technical skills needed for a successful career in GISc.

The 1-year online GISc Graduate Certificate is designed for working professionals. It focuses on developing the skills and knowledge you need to work in the GISc field, including how to:

  • understand foundational theory and principles of cartography and geographic information systems.
  • develop a critical eye when designing and interpreting maps.
  • appropriately model landscape features and to analyze spatial relationships among them.
  • conduct applied research projects using geospatial technology tools.

    Learn more about the University of North Dakota program.
