Learn how to read and interpret maps and data and use basic cartography principles to create maps that can be used in reports and presentations. In this introductory workshop, you'll learn about properties of geospatial data, how to work with GIS software, and how to visualize data. You will have the option of completing short exercises using QGIS or ArcGIS Pro as well as a longer exercise after the workshop for additional learning. 

This workshop will take place in the GIS & Data Lab, which is only accessible to those with an active MIT ID card. MIT Touchstone authentication is required to register.
