Description:

Did you know that you can perform a variety of GIS functions without ever having to open a clunky GIS user interface? The Geospatial Data Abstraction Library (GDAL) is a powerful open-source geospatial toolkit that allows you to perform many of the most commonly used functions without the overhead of a full-blown GIS software. In this presentation you will learn the basics of how to use the powerful GDAL tools to perform some basic GIS operations. We will also point you to resources to help you advance your command line GIS skills beyond this presentation and introduce you to other available command line GIS tools.
