West Antarctic GPS Network site in the Whitmore Mountains, West Antarctica.

There is no text.

Students must attend all lectures. Class absences must be discussed PRIOR to the missed class.

Homework assignments must be handed in on time; 10% will be taken off for each day late.

The class will include completing a computer based research project that uses the data and tools discussed in class. The project must be approved before starting work. Each student will give a 20 minute presentation the last day of class.

70% homework, 10% class participation, 20% final project. There will be no final exam.

Each student will design, implement and present a small-scale data processing and analysis project using Space Based Geodetic data. The topic should be discussed with me, decided on and approved no later than October 19th. Each student will give a 20 minute PowerPoint presentation the last day of class. The project should be thoroughly documented and all scripts/programs/macros turned in as part of the project.

(I sometimes make changes to the notes presented in class - based on questions/comments during the class or because I found something interesting to add or something that needs correcting. The files at the links above are therefore not completely static during the semester.)
