Learn R programming with a focus on geospatial data analysis in this two-part workshop. This is designed for individuals looking to gain practical skills in using R, a free and open-source statistical package increasingly used by geospatial practitioners. This certificate will cover intermediate-level skills for working with spatial data in R, including importing and exporting spatial data, geoprocessing, attribute queries and summaries, and spatial queries and joins. Workshop materials will focus mainly on tidyverse packages, sf, and tmap.

This online workshop is designed to provide a comprehensive introduction to Python programming for Geographic Information Systems (GIS). The workshop is perfect for GIS professionals, geographers, and other individuals interested in learning how to use Python to automate GIS workflows and perform spatial analysis. Students will gain a foundation in the Python programming language and be able to build custom tools and perform complex analysis in GIS applications.

Learn ArcGIS Pro, the world-class desktop GIS software. This class will cover the basics of using Pro to visualize, analyze, and synthesize spatial data. This workshop teaches the fundamentals of GIS, using the leading desktop GIS software. here

QGIS is a free, open-source desktop GIS software that can analyze, edit and visualize geospatial data. This powerful software is comparable in functionality to Esri's ArcGIS Pro, but can run on any operating system (even a Mac) and ....did we mention it's free? Whether you are new to GIS, or have experience on another platform this workshop will be great for you. Sign up below to learn to analyze spatial data and make beautiful maps with QGIS.

Go beyond the basics of the powerful, free, open-source QGIS software. Perform spatial analysis, interpolation, time series, model building, geocoding, and georeferencing. This workshops includes interactive activities to guide you through intermediate-level GIS skills and time to work with data of your choosing. You will discover your inner cartographer by creating beautiful maps to communicate your results.es here

In this workshop we will explore the powerful applications available on the ArcGIS Online platform – including feature layers, web maps, and web apps. We will cover the display and exploration of spatial data, geo-located surveys (Survey123), ArcGIS Dashboards and ArcGIS StoryMaps. At the end of the workshop you will be able to import data and do some basic analysis such as finding the nearest facility, finding relationships, and determining how many of something are within an area.

This workshop will cover intermediate tools and workflows in ArcGIS Pro. Also covered is developing a basic understanding of remote sensing properties as well as technologies and analysis capabilities in ArcGIS Pro.

By completing this workshop, students will learn more advanced techniques for process automation and analysis using ESRI products. They will incorporate additional Python libraries into their scripts and have an introduction to Web GIS with ArcGIS Online and the ArcGIS API for Python.

This workshop aims to give you the foundation to start developing your own interactive maps and geospatial visualizations for the web by focusing on a few popular and open source tools that you can master and build on as you go. With a few foundational skills and a bit of knowledge, our friendly and energetic instructor will show how you can build your own beautiful maps and visualizations for the web. This workshop assumes some knowledge of HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. If you’re new to those languages, we can send you some materials to get started ahead of time.

Through maps and the information contained within them, we can explore the interconnectedness of almost anything and everything. This interactive workshop will tour maps through time, learn the fundamentals of map making, and explore the technological landscape of GIS (Geographic Information Systems). Along the way, we'll expand our geospatial thinking by diving into historical events, existing government policy, and other phenomena as explorative case studies of how both physical and social geography impact us and most of what we experience.
