Plugins in QGIS

Plugins in QGIS

This intermediate-level workshop is meant to extend basic knowledge of QGIS by exploring common plugins. Familiarity of the QGIS is therefore a prerequisite. By the end of this workshop, participants will be able to use plugins to

  • Access dynamic basemaps hosted on web servers
  • Query and download Open Street Map (OSM) data
  • Geocode address data from a spreadsheet, and
  • Create an interactive webmap from a QGIS project

Familiarity with GIS is prerequisite for this workshop.

Things to do before arriving:
