QGIS Fundamentals provides an introduction to QGIS, a free, open-source desktop Geographic Information System (GIS) used for mapping, spatial analysis, and data visualization. This workshop covers the QGIS interface, importing and managing spatial data, creating and styling maps, working with coordinate reference systems, and performing basic geoprocessing tasks. Participants will also learn where to obtain publicly available GIS data and explore common workflows for research applications. No prior GIS experience is required, making this workshop a starting point for students, faculty, and staff interested in incorporating geospatial analysis into their research or coursework.

Workshop occurs in Eastern Standard Time (EST).

This is a researcher focused workshop.
