By • • Knowledge, Research, Teaching • , , • 1 minute of reading

You are trained to be a Geospatialist and not a story writer, answer point to point. If you have missed my classes and have not prepared, don’t waste your time, instead, pray to God. Do not unnecessarily smile at the person sitting next to you, they may also not know the answer, moreover, exam hall is not the right place for networking. Do not get nervous if your friend is taking more sheets, they may be just showing off to make you nervous. It’s good to have a lot of beautiful options in life but all questions are compulsory here.

Definition of GIS

By • • Knowledge, Public, Research, Teaching • , , • 1 minute of reading

GIS stands for Geographic Information Systems, but the “S” is increasingly being used to stand for science and studies as well. Geographic Information Science, and Geographic Information Studies are used increasingly. No universally agreed-upon definition has been put forth. Surprisingly, a number of GIS texts do not even attempt to define the term. Traditionally, GIS is a computer-based system for collecting, managing, analyzing, modeling, and presenting geographic data for a wide range of applications. Geographic Information Science, then, is the discipline that studies and uses a GIS as a tool. GIS is not simply creating maps with a computer. The

What is the importance of literature review?

By • • Research, Teaching • , , , • 1 minute of reading

To conduct a literature review, researchers must first find all previous research done on the topic they are studying. This review of the literature provides a thorough introduction to the reader on the topic and presents all the analyses and findings of previous studies. Current researchers use these findings to develop their own research questions and eventually to create their own hypotheses on the topic that provides a focus for their explorations and analyses. The findings of the current research can then be compared and contrasted with previous findings and used as take-off point for further research.   Literature reviews
