This unit teaches the theory and methods of applied environmental modelling and applied spatial econometrics using a combination of the statistical computing package, R, and GIS software. The focus is on how representations of space are encoded in such software and how they may be applied to the modelling of social and environmental processes. The unit provides higher level quantitative and spatial statistical research training suitable for individual research projects and postdoctoral work.
