SimpleGrid adopts the technologies used in GISolve (TeraGrid GIScience Gateway). The design of SimpleGrid takes a component-based approach so that individual modules can be reused and extended in building sophisticated science and engineering gateways. SimpleGrid provides both programming interfaces and automated scripting mechanisms to sandwich applications between web portals and cyberinf… text/html 2009-11-18T21:35:53-06:00 Wenwu Tang http://www.cigi.uiuc.edu/doku.php/eot/geoviz/index?rev=1258601753&do=diff1258601753 Course Objective and Description The goal of this course is to introduce the basic principles and methods of cartography and geovisualization, and their applications in geography and related domains. Principles to be covered include map projections, symbolization, classification, and generalization. Methods focus on 2D and 3D mapping techniques, spatiotemporal visualization, and web mapping. Through hands-on laboratory exercises students will develop the skill necessary to use popular GIS soft… text/html 2009-11-18T13:36:48-06:00 Eric Shook http://www.cigi.uiuc.edu/doku.php/projects/scalableabm/index?rev=1258573008&do=diff1258573008 This page is dedicated to the development of the Scalable ABM Paper.

It is intended to familiarize students with GIScience literature and the state of the art GIS technologies and applications. The course will be held primarily in a discussion format combined with hands-on and writing projects. One or two tours of cutting edge GIS facilities within the CIGI (<http://www.cigi.uiuc.edu/>) and NCSA (<http://www.ncsa.illinois.edu/>) are also planned.
