Abstract: Let $X$ and $Y$ be proper metric spaces. We show that a coarsely $n$-to-$1$ map $fcolonXoY$ induces an $n$-to-$1$ map of Higson coronas. This viewpoint turns out to be successful in showing that the classical dimension raising theorems hold in large scale; that is, if $fcolonXoY$ is a coarsely $n$-to-$1$ map between proper metric spaces $X$ and $Y$ then $asdim(Y)leqasdim(X)+n-1$. Furthermore we introduce coarsely open coarsely $n$-to-$1$ maps, which include the natural quotient maps via a finite group action, and prove that they preserve the asymptotic dimension.
