Temple University is pleased to announce that we will once again be hosting geographic information systems (GIS) Day. GIS Day provides an international forum for users of geographic information systems (GIS) technology to demonstrate real-world applications that are making a difference in our society.
This FREE EVENT will include a hands-on workshop, a keynote speaker, and a GIS Jobs Panel.
QGIS essentials: geodata from the cloud and back
Workshop
This workshop offers an introduction to how to use and share Web Mapping Services (WMS) in QGIS, the free and open-source Geographic Information System application. A Web Mapping Service (WMS) is the most widely used and simplest form for displaying GIS data on the web.
Participants will need to bring their laptops to the workshop. Basic knowledge of GIS is helpful but not required.
*This workshop is only available to Temple students, faculty, and staff.
WHO SHOULD ATTEND: Students, educators, researchers and professionals interested in learning more about GIS and how it is making a difference in our lives and communities.
