The project is designed for you to collect or collate spatial information, analyze the spatial dimensionality of the data you collect, and provide a sound scientific examination of a spatial problem from start to finish. You will be expected to link at three or more spatial analytic techniques together to solve a spatial problem. You will be marked on the papers scientific merit in terms of framing the spatial problem, application of appropriate methods, data analysis, results and conclusions.
