This subject prepares the students with the basic concept of
multimedia, technology and the importance of multimedia
application. It covers the introduction to media, multimedia
graphic implementation, 2D/3D graphics and animation,
video, audio, authoring, multimedia integration and
application development. In lab sessions, the students will
be introduced to tools for selected media elements and
authoring software for media integration. Students will be
trained for practical preparation of still image, simple
animation, sound and effectively apply it in a multimedia
project. Students will be exposed to teamwork, leadership,
problem solving and communcation skills while performing
their various tasks and project.

Learning Outcomes
At the end of the course, students should be able to:
1. Show and explain the concepts, issues, techniques and
various GIS applications.
2. Solve information system problems based on the GIS
language technique.
3. Justify the issues in GIS management based on the
information from various resources.
Synopsis
This course introduces the students to Geographic Information
Systems (GIS). GIS is a computer based data processing tool
that is used to manage, analyze and visualise spatial data. It
can be considered as advanced database. Students will
explore some of the GIS applications in the area of electronic
government, resources management, disaster management,
businesses, banking and insurance industries. Students must
be familiar with traditional methods of identifying and
describing locations using paper maps. The students will begin
by examining the geographic basics of mapping and examine
the processes in which spatial data can be recorded, captured,
stored, processed using computers. Next, the students will
introduce the methods used in spatial analysis. The final
portion of the course will focus on spatial cartographic
presentation of data.
