Introduction to QGIS January 10th 2014 in Athens Georgia

Dec 7, 2013 | GDAL, QGIS, Training

So we’ve got the new QGIS class ready to rock and roll.

Price is $325 dollars for one day and we can hold up to 12 people. You can look at the new page here. and see some of what we’re going to be doing in the class. The cool thing right now is we’ve got a space at ITOS to hold it. That puts you in walking distance of some decent restaurants in Athens GA. PLUS – bug us after class – ask questions – that’s why we are here.

One of the big things that has changed in the class is we compare what you will be looking at (QGIS) with other well known GIS software packages and point out the similarities and differences. To me (rjhale’s opinion) there aren’t gigantic differences if you are used to working in one software package – BUT – if your organization is growing or just needs some software to get over a hump and budget is a problem you can get past those differences with a little bit of effort.

Sign up – zip us an email if you want to take it. We’re hopfully going to be travelling around and offering the class in more places than just Athens. If you want one (or both) of us to come to you just email us and let us know.

Show up – learn – be a better GIS person.
