SUMMARY:Telling Spatial Stories with your Data
DESCRIPTION:This introductory workshop is targeted toward scholars\, 
 practitioners\, and researchers who are interested in finding ways to 
 represent their data and research materials spatially. Rather than focusing 
 on a single software or technical workflow\, participants will be 
 introduced to a variety of methods\, tools\, and platforms to create maps 
 or spatial representations. Participants will also be walked through key 
 questions to manage research projects\, and learn how to evaluate tools and 
 workflows for their applicability to their projects.\n\nThink of this 
 workshop as a wayfinding tutorial for navigating what questions to ask 
 yourself at the beginning of a project comprising spatial data. By the end 
 of this workshop series\, participants will be able to:\n\n\n	Design a 
 project to tell a spatial story with your data\n	Identify suitable 
 methods/tools/platforms of spatial visualization to best represent research 
 idea\n	Inventory and assemble the necessary resources to begin\n\n\nThough 
 there will be an example project\, participants are invited to bring their 
 own projects/datasets to work through together.\n\nNot sure if this 
 workshop is for you? Non-geospatial experts are welcome\, especially those 
 interested in spatial approaches to humanities research and data.\n\nThis 
 workshop is taught by a graduate student in Geography with expertise in GIS 
 and cartographic methods.\n\nLocation

 or accessibility needs\, please email alexandra.alisauskas@ubc.ca\n\nTo 
 keep up-to-date with all our workshops\, consults\, and events\, subscribe
