        This computer activity will show you how to start the ArcGIS Online program. You will be guided

through the basics of using ArcGIS Online map viewer to explore maps. After you do this activity, you will be prepared to complete other GIS activities.

Have you ever wanted to create your own maps, or integrate and visualize spatial datasets to examine changes in trends between locations and over time? Follow along with these training tutorials on QGIS, an open source geographic information system (GIS) and learn key concepts, procedures and skills for performing common GIS tasks – such as creating maps, as well as joining, overlaying and visualizing spatial datasets. These tutorials are geared towards new GIS users. We’ll start with foundational concepts, and build towards more advanced topics throughout – demonstrating how with a few relatively easy steps you can get quite a lot out of GIS. You can then extend these skills to datasets of thematic relevance to you in addressing tasks faced in your day-to-day work.

This updated guide is a simple tour of the UK geographical areas used in National Statistics work. You can use it to get basic facts on each type of area as well as more specialist information.

This document explains how postcodes are allocated to a range of geographies on which statistics are published. It explains the main differences in how postcodes are allocated between our two main postcode products, the NSPL and the ONSPD. (File Size - 519 KB)

A quick guide to the Surveyor Bookmark application:Includes a web mapping interface geared to the Surveyor community. Contains the below layers among many more for referenceNational Geodesic Survey (NGS) datasheets: Feature Service for NOAA's National Geodetic Survey Datasheets. This data contains a set of geodetic control stations maintained by the National Geodetic Survey. Each geodetic control station in this dataset has either a precise Latitude/Longitude used for horizontal control or a precise Orthometric Height used for vertical control, or both. The National Geodetic Survey (NGS) serves as the Nation's depository for geodetic data. The NGS distributes geodetic data worldwide to a variety of users. These geodetic data include the final results of geodetic surveys, software programs to format, compute, verify, and adjust original survey observations or to convert values from one geodetic datum to another, and publications that describe how to obtain and use geodetic data products and services. OPUS Shared Solutions: This data layer contains user-contributed geodetic control marks with shared GPS observations, which provide local ties to the National Spatial Reference System. This data layer is updated every week night. For more information about OPUS please visit the About OPUS page. If you would like to upload your own opus solution please visit our upload opus solution page. For additional information about shared solution please visit our shared solutions page.The NOAA Continuously Operating Reference Stations (CORS) Network (NCN), managed by NOAA/National Geodetic Survey, provide Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) data, supporting three dimensional positioning, meteorology, space weather, and geophysical applications throughout the United States.Surveyors, GIS users, engineers, scientists, and other people who collect GPS/GNSS data can use NCN data, acquired at fiducial geodetic control stations, to improve the precision of their positions, and align their work within the National Spatial Reference System (NSRS). NCN enhanced post-processed coordinate accuracies can approach a few centimeters, both horizontally and vertically.The NOAA Continuously Operating Reference Stations (CORS) Network: The CORS network is a multi-purpose, multi-agency cooperative endeavor, combining the efforts of hundreds of government, academic, and private organizations. The stations are independently owned and operated. Each agency shares their GNSS/GPS carrier phase and code range measurements and station metadata with NGS, which are analyzed and distributed free of charge.NYS DOT Roadway Inventory Data: which includes State Highway Number (SH #)Many more, such as: Civil Boundaries, Streets, Elevation Contours, Building Footprints with address information, publicly available Tax Parcels, Hydrography (great for cartographic purposes!), Statewide Hillshade, Statewide Latest Digital Elevation Model, and the Latest and Greatest Orthoimagery from the great folks at NYS ITS Geospatial Data Services' Orthoimagery Program!We also offer a Basic Viewer App within this same interface for viewing many layers, unrelated to surveying.

A comprehensive guide on setting up geo-targeting for cities and states across multiple countries, including supported regions and integration with analytics platforms.

Instructions for students to use aerial photos, Google Earth and QGIS to explore their fieldwork area prior to their field trip. This material was designed for first-year undergraduate Earth Sciences students, in preparation to a fieldwork in the French Alps. The fieldwork and this guide focuses on understanding the geology and geomorphology.The accompanying dataset.zip contains required gis-data, which are a DEM (SRTM) and Satellite images (Landsat). This dataset is without a topographic map (SCAN25 from IGN) due to licence constraint. For academic use, request your own licence from IGN (ign.fr) directly.

This dataset is about books. It has 1 row and is filtered where the book is Learning GIS using open source software : an applied guide for geo-spatial analysis. It features 7 columns including author, publication date, language, and book publisher.

Structured comparison showing differences and overlaps between SEO and GEO across targets, goals, signals, metrics, and output formats.

In order to use the QGIS plugin ‘Seilaplan’ for digital cable line planning, a digital terrain model (DTM) is required. The plugin ‘Swiss Geo Downloader’, which is available for the open source geoinformation software QGIS, allows freely available Swiss geodata to be downloaded and displayed directly within QGIS. It was developed in 2021 by Patricia Moll in collaboration with the Swiss Federal Institute for Forest, Snow and Landscape Research WSL. In this tutorial we describe how to download the high accuracy elevation model ‘swissALTI3D’ with the help of the ‘Swiss Geo Downloader’ and how to use it for digital planning of a cable line with the plugin ‘Seilaplan’. Please note that the tutorial language is German! Link to the Swiss Geo Downloader: https://pimoll.github.io/swissgeodownloader Link to Seilaplan website: https://seilaplan.wsl.ch
