QGIS is a free and open source GIS that runs on all major operating systems. It’s available in about 40 languages and used worldwide by a large and growing user community. New features are added at a dizzying pace by a talented global team of developers.

QGIS is professional grade and can do the majority of data import, data display, analysis and map production required by today’s geoscientists. A wide variety of free geological symbols and patterns are available for mapping, and a growing number of plugins are available to support your geoscience workflow.

In response to attendee feedback, we’ve expanded the course to two days so we can fit it all in! We’ll cover the fundamentals of QGIS with geoscience-specific data and exercises:

  • Importing and exporting data
  • Basic styling & labelling
  • Working with expressions
  • Creating & editing data
  • QGIS plugins
  • Visualising geochemistry & geophysical data
  • Making maps
  • Georeferencing
  • Raster basics
  • Drillhole traces and cross sections
  • Raster processing and geological mapping with ASTER
  • Sources of free data
