GIS (Geographic Information System)

The Rio Hondo College Geographic Information Systems Certificate provides a professional and academic resource in one of the fastest growing technologies in North America. A growing number of industries are recognizing GIS and GPS as an Integral part of their practice. GIS is a computer-based data processing tool used to map, manage, analyze, display, and model spatial information to analyze patterns and relationships between many different layers of mapped data simultaneously.
The GIS tool is used in most fields from crime mapping, marketing, landscape architecture, planning, geological & biological science, computer science, education, and most others. The student completing the GIS certificate program at Rio Hondo College will be prepared for a GIS technician level position in the GIS field or for advancement in their current career.
