[RCAC Workshop] Hands-on with QGIS
Join us for our upcoming Hands-on with QGIS Workshop, where you'll learn to navigate and utilize QGIS, a powerful open-source Geographic Information System (GIS).
What You'll Learn:
Get Started with QGIS. We’ll cover the basics of opening QGIS on clusters, loading, viewing, processing and exporting spatial data.
- Introduction
- Open QGIS on HPC Clusters
- View Spatial Data
- Process Spatial Data
Project: Exploring landscape around Purdue. Through a hands-on project, you’ll learn to apply raster analysis techniques to explore the landscape around Purdue University. We will also cover installing plugins such as QuickMapServices and WhiteboxTools. Specifically, you’ll work with:
- Slope
- Hill shade
- Stream and watershed
- Raster to Vector
Coding with QGIS: Python Console and more. Take your analysis to the next level by learning how to write scripts using the QGIS Python Console and more. You'll learn how to automate geospatial tasks, such as replicating the same tasks you performed in the "Exploring Landscape around Purdue" project, but this time using code and submiting jobs to HPC clusters. By automating these tasks, you'll be able to streamline your workflow and increase efficiency.
Workshop Details: No prior experience with QGIS is necessary. Participants should bring a personal laptop to engage in hands-on examples
