Introduction to Spatial Data & GIS

Spatial analysis underpins a wide range of research across numerous fields, from tracking the movements of people, to considering the impact of location, to studying environmental change.

This workshop will introduce you to spatial data and how it can be used. We'll cover some of the issues that surround the data and then get to grips with viewing and styling it in GIS Software. After that we will look at some of the ways that you can create your own spatial data.

This workshop will be hosted via Zoom Webinar.
