Geographic information systems | UWT GIS Certificate Program 

Maps are incredible things.  They can show us the cultural and geographic history of a place. They can help explain the roots of a social problem. They can be used to solve some of our most daunting environmental issues. They can tell stories about where we are, where we came from and where we are going.

​

Geographic Information Systems allows us to visualize, analyze, and interpret data spatially to see trends and patterns. GIS can help governments, organizations, businesses, and more make better informed decisions.
