Teaching introductory GIS programming to geographers using an open source Python approach
Computer programming is not commonly taught to geographers as a part of geographic information system (GIS) courses, but the advent of NeoGeography, big data and open GIS means that programming skills are becoming more important. To encourage the teaching of programming to geographers, this paper outlines a course based around a series of laboratories that aims to provide an introduction to programming. Methods for teaching and assessment are rec…
Expert opinion‐based relative landscape isolation maps for badgers across E ngland and W ales
Landscape epidemiological studies often produce maps that visualise spatial variation in disease incidence or prevalence. Within E ngland and W ales a component of the spatial variation in the incidence of bovine tuberculosis ( bTB ) is endemic infection in the E uropean badger ( Meles meles ) population. This reservoir of infection presents a major obstacle to control and eradication of the disease in cattle, which is currently one of the major …
