RATIONALE:
GEOG 457-4 was approved as a new course in the calendar after the GIS program was introduced. The additional course allows students a wider choice of upper division GIS courses to chose from.

If this course replicates the content of a previously approved course to the extent that students should not receive credit for both courses, this should be noted in the prerequisite.
