Course Summary: This Coursera course, "QGIS 3.10 LTR for GIS Professionals," is designed for GIS professionals looking to explore and adopt open-source GIS solutions. With the release of a stable long-term support (LTR) version, QGIS presents a robust and future-proof alternative to commercial GIS software. The course will cover: * **Understanding Open Source GIS:** What open source truly means and how QGIS stacks up against commercial alternatives. * **QGIS Fundamentals:** Navigating the QGIS interface, understanding available data sources and their pros/cons. * **Data Management and Visualization:** Styling data, utilizing selections and filtering for data control, working with attributes, and creating beautiful printed maps and map atlases. * **Spatial Analysis and Modeling:** Performing vector and raster data analysis, and building spatial models for automating repetitive tasks. * **Advanced Topics:** Introduction to Python scripting within QGIS and working with 3D data. The instructor emphasizes that while QGIS may not be perfect, it excels in its capabilities, particularly with multi-user enterprise data editing. The aim is to equip GIS professionals with a comprehensive understanding of their tool options to make informed decisions for their specific needs.
If you are a GIS professional who has been interested in exploring the options for open source GIS, there has never been a better time to start learning. The release of a major new version of QGIS means that what you learn today will likely be valid for many years. There have also been many improvements that make it a reasonable choice for your core GIS application. In this course you will learn: What open source really means.How QGIS compares with commercial offerings.How to navigate the QGIS interface.What data source options are available and the advantages and disadvantages of each.How to style your data.How to use selections and filtering to control which features you view and modify.How to work with attributes.How to make beautiful printed maps.How to create a map atlas.How to analyze vector and raster data.How to build spatial models for repeated tasks.How to get started with python scripting.How to work with 3D data.Much more! QGIS is not perfect but I believe that what it does, it does very well. Especially with multi-user editing of enterprise data. I am not anti-commercial GIS, however I do believe that all GIS professionals should have a good understanding of all their options so that they may choose the best tool for the job.
