"Are you curious about Geographic Information Systems (GIS) but don’t know where to start?Have you been asked to design a print map but you are confused by all the buttons and tools in QGIS?Do you need to perform spatial analysis on your data but you are unsure about the most appropiate tool to use?If you’ve found yourself in one of these situations, then this course is for you. I have designed this course to help you solve all the questions you have about the fundamentals and applications of GIS and spatial analysis using a free, powerful and user-friendly software package, QGIS.In this course you will learn from the very basics of GIS usage to more advanced spatial analysis operations, while I walk you through every step. Using examples and data from real life projects, my course will help you understand and master the most commonly used techniques for geospatial analysis.The goal of each lesson is that you learn one main concept at a time and put that concept into practice right away through practical, hands-on exercises. Take action and enroll in this course today! Start learning GIS and implement it now in your mapping and spatial data projects.Hope to see you inside!"
