Comment :
Super interesting course for anyone interested in photography or mapping! Definitely not everyone\'s cup of tea but I loved the course and John Lindsay is hilarious and makes all the lectures entertaining. Labs are difficult at first if you don\'t have any experience with computers or GIS, but otherwise concepts aren\'t too hard.

Very strong accent and hard to understand, read the textbook, lectures are a waste of time. Midterm 30%, plus 35% final, 25% on labs. Boring subjects unless your really into spectrums and wave lengths. Labs are hard, not because of difficulty, but because the instructions are brutal do not take this course unless you are super familiar with hard intel on how to use computers scientifically. If you don\'t know what a zip file is right off the bat and how to use it your doomed already.
