Welcome to the website of GEOG3006! On this website you will find all the slides and the videos from the lectures and you will also find all the material you need for the lab exercises.
During this course we will be using R, an extremely versatile and powerful programming language which is used by some of the biggest companies including Facebook, Google, Twitter, AirBnB and much more. R is a language designed primarily for statistical analysis and as you will see during this course there is a lot of handy functions for this.
This course uses a programming language which means that you have to write your own code for the computer to understand what you want to do. While this can be scary at first you get much more freedom compared to other statistical software such as SPSS.
This website is decomposed in three parts.
Good luck for this semester!
