Description: This course introduces students to visual and spatial data collection, management, and production skills through direct hands-on training and lecture. Topics include field and laboratory-based photography, manipulation and management of digital images, spatial data collection through Global Positioning Systems (GPS) and total stations, and digital map/image creation. While exercises used throughout the course focus on archaeological examples, the technical skills learned can easily be applied to all four subfields of anthropology.
