This three hour workshop gives participants the opportunity to learn QGIS, the free and open source geospatial software package. The content of the workshop revolves around solving a research/planning question using data about Detroit. Skills included in the workshop are making a color-shaded choropleth map, sub-setting data, using census data, geocoding within QGIS, joining datasets, creating buffers and more. If you have taken other library workshops on QGIS the workshop will review and build on earlier skills, and if you are totally unfamiliar with QGIS this workshop will give you a solid introduction to the software.
