Introduction to WebGIS

This course examines various Internet technologies commonly used to build web-based visualization applications with municipal data. You will learn about APIs and how they are used as data sources for web applications. Although no prior programming experience is required, the course is specifically designed to bring out the "coder" in the "non-coder," by teaching the basics of Internet programming languages. Different web technologies will be explored, including HTML, CSS, Javascript, jQuery, Google Maps API, and Leaflet.
