With spring (hopefully) upon us, it’s time for our final winter education session.  We are excited to welcome a return guest speaker – we hope you’ll join us.

EDUCATION SESSION - CREATING MAPS FOR HEALTH CARE

Librarian Grace Romund guest-hosts this session, demonstrating in real time how you can take raw health data and turn it into a map!

In this session you will discover how to integrate existing GIS data and health data sources (e.g. Statistics Canada, WHO, etc.) to visualize and analyze health statistics geographically. You will also learn about geographic data points and how to visualize data that you may have collected in your research or practice. This session will primarily focus on the free open source software program QGIS.

Previous GIS experience is not required.
