Watch for a OpenStreetMap class coming this summer.Įmail or Call with questions. With that said this isn’t the last class I’m going to build – I’ve got an idea for a couple of more and depending on how this class goes there might be more Quantum Classes. Plus, anything that makes me a better GIS person and pushes me more is a good thing. More widespread exposure helps the software develop. I’ve had the luck of speaking with a developer on the project. I’m turning into one of those guys who will work with about any software to get the most important thing right – the data. I use it not quite every day but I’m starting to get close. I’m taking a slightly different approach with the class – I’m targeting GIS Professionals and trying to show them how well this software works and how it can be used. It’s not quite done – I’m still working with the slides and am filling out class exercises. It’s a 1 day class and I’m starting out offering it at $275 dollars – it may go up or down. I’m announcing my first custom class – Introduction to Quantum GIS. I can’t quite let them out yet – but I can start letting some out. I’ve got a lot of thoughts rolling around in my head on why I’m doing what I’m doing. Both times I’ve incorporated things I learned back into my work environment. I have taught it twice and both times I’ve learned a bit more. Actually I did one better than that – I co-taught it with the person that wrote the book. I got the chance a few years back to teach URISA’s Open Source GIS Workshop. It really made me think though what happens when it ends.What do you do when your business partner tanks 1/3 of your business plan……. With that program more or less ending I’ve been offering everyone breaks on training to just just train. I’ve worked hard to get that designation. One of the things I’ve been wrestling with is training. I’ve been making a lot of decisions about different things. The last few weeks have been interesting. 29 10.1.1 General Information for Map Zoom Tools.
