《犯罪的地图绘制与空间分析-开源软件版》课程总结 这门Coursera课程《犯罪的地图绘制与空间分析-开源软件版》是为对地理信息系统（GIS）应用于犯罪分析和犯罪学研究感兴趣的学习者设计的。课程的目标是让学生掌握使用GIS软件进行空间分析的技能，以解答犯罪司法和犯罪学研究中的问题。 **课程亮点：** * **实用技能训练：** 课程侧重于实际操作，通过讲座传授概念性理解，并通过动手实验进行技能培训。 * **开源软件应用：** 主要使用QGIS、GeoDa和SaTScan等免费开源软件，强调如何在实践中应用这些工具。 * **广泛适用性：** 虽然以犯罪分析为重点，但课程教授的工具和技术同样适用于公共卫生、流行病学、经济学和社会学等领域的研究。 * **循序渐进的挑战：** 实验室练习设计得循序渐进，让学生逐步掌握和运用所学分析技能和技术，并提供可下载的数据和详细的实验说明。 **课程内容：** 课程将教授如何使用QGIS软件来： * 创建地图 * 管理空间数据 * 运用严格的统计分析方法来探索与空间相关的研究问题 **课程要求：** * **必备软件：** QGIS 3.16, GeoDa 1.18, SaTScan 9.6 (均需自行下载安装)。 * **电脑设备：** 需要一台个人电脑或公共电脑，能够支持软件和数据的下载与运行。 **先修课程：** 本课程不要求任何GIS或统计学基础，但需要具备基本的桌面电脑操作和使用Microsoft Office应用的能力。
Geographic Information Systems (GIS) have emerged as an essential tool for crime analysts. This course will offer students an opportunity to gain skills in using GIS software to apply spatial analysis techniques to criminal justice and criminological research questions.While this course focuses on the spatial analysis of crime, the tools and techniques learned in the course apply to public health, epidemiolocal, economic, and sociological phenomena.The course will incorporate diverse learning activities including lectures that provide a conceptual understanding of the tools and techniques, as well as hands-on skills training in the form of labs. Lessons will focus on using QGIS software to make maps, manage spatial data, and conduct rigorous statistical analysis in the exploration of spatially derived research questions. The laboratory section of the course will give students the opportunity for hands-on learning on how to use GIS systems to analyze data and produce maps and reports. These laboratory exercises will be designed to increasingly challenge the students to incorporate the analytic skills and techniques they have learned during the course. Students can download the lab data and follow along. Importantly, I have lab instructions that students can download and use in the future.Course Requirements:GIS Software and Data This course relies heavily on QGIS, GeoDa, and SaTScan software. o Download QGIS 3.16 o Download GeoDa 1.18 o Download SaTScan 9.6 Computer Access Students will need a personal computer or public computer where they can download the software and data.Prerequisites This course assumes no previous experience in the use of geographic information systems (GIS) or statistics. The basic ability to use a desktop computer and Microsoft Office applications is required.
