PrintWelcome to the Fall 2023 offerings of Geography 882: Geographic Foundations of Geospatial Intelligence. Dr. Michael Thomas will serve as the instructor for the semester. This orientation allows us to become familiar with the online learning environment, and then get to know one another.
In order to help us to better understand your expectations for GEOG 882 please take a few minutes to complete the Initial Course Survey. The survey contains a few questions and should take less than ten minutes to complete. Your cooperation is appreciated. You can access the survey in "Lesson 00: Course and Program Orientation" in Canvas.
Have you looked at our syllabus? This course orientation will complement and expand on the information provided on our syllabus. Be sure to review the syllabus carefully. A link to the syllabus is also located in the main navigation bar.
