Introduction to Geospatial Mapping and ArcGIS Online
The Introduction to Geospatial Mapping and ArcGIS Online session will focus on introducing the concept of geospatial mapping covering the basics of what Geographic Information Systems (GIS), geospatial data, and geospatial mapping are. It will also cover geospatial data types, sources, and file formats, and introduce participants to different types of geospatial mapping tools and software.
Finally, I will demonstrate and walk you through the steps on how to create your own maps using ArcGIS Online, add data layers, visualize information effectively, and share your creations (maps) with others within Virginia Tech or outside!
The session caters to anyone, whether you are a student, faculty, researcher, or simply curious about mapping. No prior experience is required.
