SUMMARY:Webmapping Part 1
DESCRIPTION:This workshop provides a gentle introduction to web mapping 
 using the browser-based platforms uMap and Google MyMaps. These platforms 
 are free and quite straightforward to use. Join us to learn how to 
 dynamically and interactively visualize geospatial data with maps that can 
 be shared to others via a link.\n\nNote: This workshop is part of the 
 series Intro to Webmapping\, which explores common tools and platforms for 
 making web maps.  While Part 1 focuses on online platforms\, Part 2 
 introduces web mapping with code. No prior experience necessary! 
 Participants are encouraged to register for both sessions.\n\n\nIntro to 
 Web Maps\n\n\n	Why web maps?\n	Web map vs digital map\n	Map
