Great course. Quite challenging, huge amount of info shared and employed in the assignments. This makes the course very thorough yet as mentioned, challenging to complete. Not for the faint at heart!

Awesome..... The lectures are very helpful to the students or gis learners who wants to do some on-line, especially the final project was awesome... i really enjoyed and learned much more things...

Nick Santos is fantastic and I learned a lot in this course. However, my qualms are with coursera and the structure of the peer review assignment. I think I deserved full points on the final project (one reviewer did in fact award me full points) but the other reviewer graded harshly and plainly graded wrong, without any reason as to why they marked me down. Their comment was "good". Its like they did not even look at my project. There needs to be better quality monitoring in the grading for this course because its very discouraging and frankly infuriating that this happened.

Well structured but as with the previous course in this specialization there is way too much focus on ArcGIS. The course is called "GIS Data Formats, Design and Quality," not "Processing Data in ArcGIS." The module on ArcGIS Online is just unnecessary. There is nothing to be learned in that module that can be applied outside of an ArcGIS context.

Major lack in instructor support but a decent intro to GIS. Also, some clunks in hw instructions that slow things down. The first lecture should be on getting your student license bc it takes a few days to receive.

Scattered and lacking focus. The material is all there, but it feels like a laundry list of miscellany that didn't make it into the previous or next course in the specialisation.

Sad that the series of this course, which was very useful at start with Nick, is going downhill. No technical support, no clear explanation of a certain concept or terminology anymore as it continues. This course is all about demonstration of different ArcGIS tool with little guidance. It takes only a few months to realize that I should start finding other learning materials to learn ArcGIS Pro.

I wish there was a pdf or something to go along with all the information. The instructions on the final assignment are fairly unclear. I feel like this is a supplement for an in-person lecture... as in it feels like I'm missing a big portion of the understanding to be successful in this course.
