I especially liked that you discussed the geographer’s approach and emphasized how important it is to keep thinking about what you are doing. All the techniques and concepts I teach in my QGIS tutorials For Beginners series have been proven in the research and consulting environments over the last 24 years. FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONSQ. Your QGIS tutorial does not use ARC. Does this matter?A. No, it does not matter. I teach you the basics of GIS mapping in a way thats applicable to ALL GIS software, even Arc.Q. I have no experience with QGIS. Does that matter?A. No previous GIS or QGIS knowledge is assumed.Q. I am worried that this QGIS tutorial will be like many other technical courses - abstract and hard to follow.A. All exercises are deliberately based on the practical GIS problems that I encounter day-to-day in my GIS consultancy. All my QGIS tutorial for Beginners courses use datasets covering the same area - Yarmouth in Massachusetts. That means my QGIS tutorials build on each other so you get to understand that the value and usefulness of maps over an area increases as more maps are added.
