Design a geospatial workflow to plan for
smart urban growth
The world’s population is on a trajectory to grow by 25% and reach 9.7 billion over the next 30 years. Every city in the world faces the problem of determining where people can live. You could be the urban planner or GIS analyst that needs the skills and strategies for presenting sustainable growth alternatives. This course will teach you how to build a GIS process workflow from start to finish. You’ll learn how to create and load spatial data in geodatabases, how to design spatial models that map growth scenarios, and how to present map alternatives online for public review. You will walk away with geo-planning skills that can be marketable to any city or private planning consultancy that designs sustainable urban growth plans.

About the Instructor
Dr. Cartlidge runs a consulting firm that leverages geospatial technology to offer population forecasting consulting services. He uses many pieces of the enterprise Esri stack to create geodatabases and run spatial models. Dr. Cartlidge has 8+ years experience forecasting student enrollment and leading school redistricting projects for Prince William County Public Schools. He has a PhD from University of Nebraska and holds a GISP. He serves as a GIS subject matter expert for Southern New Hampshire University.

Why my course is useful
Urban planning is one of the key departments in any city where the use of GIS as a planning tool is common. But a well modeled workflow to show planning alternatives to manage urban sprawl is hard to find. I wanted to model this shortcourse after the consulting projects I have been involved in.
Why I built it
I wanted to serve two types of students. There are geography students who need an understanding of urban planning usecases. And there are urban planning students who need GIS skills. This is the perfect crossover class for this audience.
What I hope for you
In many places, planning workflows are still being done in old school ways. I’d like you to deploy these skills and help bring an innovative mindset to the planning departments that you will work for. GIS is a planning tool and must be used around the world to manage the urban sprawl associated with population growth. You can be the geographic smarts at your round table discussions.

Top reviews from Design A Geospatial Workflow To Plan ForSmart Urban Growth
I got more interested in urban planning with this class since it deals with locating areas for affordable housing. Thanks Matt.
The demos in this class will show you the power of spatial modeling to solve a planning problem.
Matt, I am going to recommend this class to a few others in our planning department. Thank you.
The spatial model we made was complicated and quite a challenge to diagnose errors.
Course had good clear demos and Matt you were great in our advisory meetings.
