GIS is such a critical skill in some many disciplines this is a great intro to the how and why behind it! I love using GIS in my forensic work and hope to use it more as I continue! Thanks Caden!
Thanks for dropping in - and I agree. I think it is one of the most helpful and fun side skills a geologist can develop. I bet forensic GIS stuff is really interesting.
This is fantastic. I have a degree in GIS (during its infancy days). ARC GIS has come a long way from its earliest days! Thanks for the demo; very cool 😎
awesome vid thanks man, my buddy and i are mapping some ordovician sandstones and this is exactly what we need! hopefully this translates to qgis well haha
Most the work I've done in central and western Montana has been in the thrust belt mostly atop or involving the Wyoming Craton (i.e., not quite far enough west to be into accreted terranes). Lots of cool work on this - a paper that comes to mind is Foster et al. (2012). They use Hf isotopes to potentially identify the western margin of the craton (doi.org/10.1016/j.lithos.2012.03.005).
The software I'm using here (Esri ArcPro) requires a license that must be purchased. It is also only Windows compatible but you can run parallels if you are a Mac user. The more common and accessible option is QGIS. Q is powerful and can accomplish most the things that is done in Arc. I prefer the latter bc I learned it in undergrad and have taught courses that utilize it. I'm sure there are others out there but those are the two that I use and am familiar with.
PLEASE DO MORE BRO YOURE SO MUCH BETTER THAN MY PROFESSORS
haha doggg what a nice comment. I will try to do as much as I can with the extra time I have. Hope you're finding some good profs out there
you had me at raster data. Awesome video, thanks!!

that is super cool - what year did you study GIS?
You're awesome Caden! Nice video as always, much love from Brazil
Fig 1 is looking dope
I love this! I've been trying to learn GIS off TH-cam - would love it if you do a series explaining how!
thanks - I would love to do a series on GIS fundamentals some day...

sweeeet thanks for checking it out. where are these Ordovician sed rocks?
I think you have Suspect or exotic terrains regim in your study area. Good luck in your project.

I turn on my computer but I can’t see anything? What did I do wrong?
lol step 1 if you're having problems with GIS software: unplug everything and restart your computer. works 90% of the time
Which software should we learn for geology in undergraduate
