This three-session workshop covers the basics of working with geographic data to make maps in QGIS, an open-source GIS platform. Topics include creating and editing vector data (session 1) and georeferencing raster imagery (session 2). The final, optional session culminates in combining vector and raster data to create a topographic map.

No experience with QGIS is assumed, and more advanced topics may be introduced depending on time and student interest. Computers with QGIS installed will be provided for you. Register online via LibCal.
