Abstract
This course, in accordance with the title of the subject, concerns only the Geographic
Information System in a precise manner, addressed to Master 2 students in Ecology of Natural
Environments in the field of Nature and Life Sciences, Sector: Ecology and Environment , By
first introducing the basic concepts of GIS (GIS components, data types), then explaining the
growing importance of GIS in general and specifically for their field. We conclude with a
presentation of the ArcGIS software and the acquisition of fundamental GIS skills and
integrated into geomatics according to the objectives set and among which: Acquisition of
knowledge on recent advances in the field of computing and in particular the development of
satellite techniques, and introduction to basic theoretical knowledge on the processing and
analysis of satellite images.
The course has been developed gradually by drawing on the regulatory content of the
training framework of this Master whose harmonization has been formalized by Ministerial
Order No. 1156 of 09/08/2016harmonizing the other specialties for qualified under theM'Sila
University for the field "Natural and Life Sciences" on the one hand and on the other by a
number of books.
The course is accompanied by practical sessions in which students will perform
various operations using ArcGIS software.
The primary objective of this course is to offer a scientific and methodological
synthesis of GIS, based on the knowledge and skills acquired in the 1st cycle. The second
objective is to assimilate the scientific approach. To do this, we were keen to present the means
of study and the data acquired in the laboratory or through modeling. The third objective, and not
the least, is to develop your curiosity and to pass on to you our common passion for the study of
geomatics. The passion for the subject, the passion for teaching and transmitting it.
The illustrations are very simple but the effort required of the student is immense,
especially in the LMD system where the knowledge gaps must be filled with the consultation of
documentation, especially digital, which is quite accessible today.
