522 Introduction to Planetary Image Analysis with ArcGIS

This workshop introduces participants to image analysis, including interpretation and feature mapping, using ArcGIS software, focusing on tasks and features most used in planetary science and geology in general. It is accessible to participants with no prior experience in GIS but includes optional advanced activities relevant to experienced users. Most of the workshop consists of hands-on exercises, with some demonstrations. The purpose of the workshop is to expose participants to the basic tools that are available in ArcGIS for geological research. This will be taught through the process of selecting a hypothetical landing site for a Mars rover using image data from the Mars Odyssey and Mars Global Surveyor. The course will be taught primarily in ArcGIS Desktop (ArcMap), but there will also be lessons and exercises on how things carry over to ArcGIS Pro. Participants will be eligible for a free one-year ArcGIS license.
