This lab manual is a companion to the third edition of the textbook Computational Methods and GIS Applications in Social Science. It uses the open-source platform KNIME to illustrate a step-by-step implementation of each case study in the book. KNIME is a workflow-based platform supporting visual programming and multiple scripting language such as R, Python, and Java. The intuitive, structural workflow not only helps students better understand the methodology of each case study in the book, but also enables them to easily replicate, transplant and expand the workflow for further exploration with new data or models. This lab manual could also be used as a GIS automation reference for advanced users in spatial analysis.

Geographic information systems, or GIS, is a way to approach mapping and spacial analysis using a computer environment. Learning GIS requires training in cartography, database management, and spatial analysis. But once you’ve built a solid foundation in the basics, how do you approach GIS challenges in the real world? In this course, Dr. Jason VanHorn helps you master practical, real-world GIS scenarios. He shows you how to get GIS data; uses for GIS data; how to understand and master projections; how to collect GIS data in the field; and how to build online web maps and mapping applications using ArcGIS.com. Jason also provides a series of challenges and solutions you can use to build your own GIS project from scratch, and finishes with some practical advice on the tips on how you can land a GIS job-and the different types of GIS jobs that are out there.
