Fall 2021 Courses
New class (for me) coming in spring 2021: GEOG 4185 - Statistical Research Methods in Geography. A preliminary version of the syllabus for the class can be downloaded here (everything about this document is subject to change).
I am always interested in talking with prospective students. I welcome inquiries from students who are up for a knowledge- and skill-building challenge at either the undergraduate (BS/BA) or graduate (MS) level. My particular teaching focus is on courses within the emerging location intelligence field. The UNT Location Intelligence Research Group website provides an overview of the learning community and career possibilities that you can access through our UNT Geography faculty, alumni, and students.

I recommend all of these packages highly, although they each have distinctive strengths:
- Caliper's Maptitude (general-purpose GIS package with good census datasets and analytical capabilities)
- Esri's Business Analyst Web App (BA Web) (user-friendly cloud GIS package focusing on basic business location and market analytics)
- Alteryx (powerful data management software with extensive geospatial analytical capabilities)
