Course Goal / Objective
At the end of this course, it is aimed to support the student with statistical approaches for the use of computer-based analytical tools in planning and to benefit from these approaches in the formation of planning and environmental policies.
Course Content
The major concept of the lecture is to introduce quantitative techniques in collecting and analysing spatial data for landscape planning. In this context the lecture covers, data sources used in landscape planning and Geographical Information Systems, data analysis, correlation and regression analysis, boolean, arithmetic statistical operations together with multiple regression, principal component analysis, fuzzy theory and artificial neural networks.
