This could be too short of notice but there’s been a few scheduling hiccups.
the Intro to QGIS class (newly updated for 2.4) will be making an appearance in Raleigh North Carolina.
Location:
Planning Communities
9131 Anson Way, Suite 304
Raleigh, NC 27615
Cost: $350
Info about the class:
Learning new software can be intimidating for some especially if you are used to a certain product that you have been using for years. (Anyone remember switching from ArcView GIS 3.x to ArcGIS Desktop 8.x?) Or perhaps you are new to GIS and looking for an affordable, user-friendly alternative to other popular GIS software. This is an introduction to QGIS that will get you familiar with the interface and many tools and features that will assist you with viewing, editing, analyzing, creating, managing, and serving GIS data in a variety of formats. Though QGIS is definitely a powerful tool to add to your GIS toolkit, it has some limitations and challenges that will be discussed in this workshop.
At the end of this workshop, you should have a good understanding of what QGIS consists of, pros and cons when using it, and feel informed to make your own decisions about how to incorporate QGIS into your project workflows.
Thanks to Teresa Townsend and Kathi Cotney for helping put this together (and TAG – http://www.triangleareagis.com/)
