Been learning geoprocessing with Python using MSU's GEOG 825 ( python geoprocessing ) course. Unfortunately the link is dead now. I know this is a long shot but does anybody have a copy of the materials from that course? I would really like to finish it.
Already checked out the other online Python geoprocessing courses. Found one in Penn State and on Utah State. Those focus on using tools though, whether they be ogr/gdal or ArcGIS' arcpy/arcgisscripting. Only Michigan State U's course discusses the algorithms and data structures as far as I know.
Answer
It looks like the Wayback Machine at the Internet Archive has a cached copy of the weekly outline page from Jun 29 2007. However, it looks like the links to the .zip and .py files used in the labs were not cached.
I would also encourage you to contact the professor who ran the course and hosted the information on his webspace. It's likely Associate Professor of Geography Ashton Shortridge didn't know that folks on the internet interested in GIS were using his materials as a resource. If you send him a polite and professional email explaining your situation, I'd like to think he would be delighted to help you out. Note that according to his website, he's teaching in China this semester so he may not be responding to email as quickly.
