Introduction

CSC220, Advanced Programming Techniques, is a 4-credit course that is an elective for the major, and counts toward the Programming component of the major. This semester it centers on a semester-long project that will require programming in

• bash
• php
• mysql
• python
• java (maybe)
• svg (probably)
• Google-Map API
• Processing (possibly)

The tentative project will involve gathering GIS files from email messages generated on data phones by applications such as Walkmeter 4.0, storing the GIS information in a database, and generating an image or animation of the paths taken by students during different periods of time.
