Course Details

Suitability modeling enables you to find where something, such as a business or habitat, should be located. In this course, you will discover the types of real-world problems that can be addressed with a suitability model. Then, you will learn how to define a problem in terms of an analysis goal and suitability criteria that can be modeled with data. You will also gain an understanding of how to prepare data for a suitability model. When you complete this course, you will be ready to create a weighted or simple suitability model by using the data that you prepared in this course as input.
