Select and Analyze Geographic Features and Data with QGIS
Event box
QGIS has an excellent interface for exploring and analyzing spatial information. Point, line and area features (vector data) are both geographic objects on a map and records in a table. Such features can be selected by location or by the values stored in a feature’s record. These simple capabilities allow the GIS user to conduct complex analyses. The session uses data for central New Jersey to calculate the area of land use types near streams, the extent of paved surfaces and other measures. Students will use QGIS on the classroom Windows computers.
This event is part of the Geographic Information Systems (GIS) workshops series.
