QGIS is an open-source GIS desktop software package. It runs on Linux/Unix, MacOS, and Windows operating systems and is available at no cost. Intended for anyone new to GIS technology, session attendees use QGIS on Windows computers in the classroom. We will load geospatial data, add on-line map services, extract selected data, and make simple maps. The training may also be valuable to anyone using R, ArcGIS Pro, or other desktop GIS software. This event is part of the Geographic Information Systems (GIS) workshop series. Accessibility To request accommodations for this or any event, please contact the organizer or James M. Van Wyck at least 3 working days prior to the event. Upcoming Professional Development Events Feb 17 Finding the Best Location using QGIS Feb 17 GradFUTURES Sustainability Learning Cohort: 1.
