Wondering how to make maps with field data? This session will give you a hands-on understanding of how GPS units gather data. Once you have the data, ensuring it is viable, we will plot a CEP (Circular Probability of Error) and correct the gathered data for presentation. This workshop builds on “Getting Started with ArcGIS” (a recommended prerequisite for those with no previous GIS experience) but isn’t absolutely necessary.
Held on:
Wednesday, May 25, 2016 (all day) to Tuesday, May 31, 2016 (all day)
