[Qgis-us-user] Meeting in Chattanooga TN - June 20th 2016

[Wilkes, Becky]

Hi Randy and listserv folks,
I just wanted to put in a plug for the “QGIS Map Design” cartography book I believe you were referring to, which I purchased through my work a just a few weeks ago.  It has some great exercises (though I’ve not gone through all of them yet).

Here’s a link to the book which outlines all the contents:  https://locatepress.com/qmd

And here’s a link to a code that will get you 25% off (assuming it’s still active).

Because I'm awesome - I fixed the subject line. It's what I get for writing two emails at once.

There will be a QGIS users group meeting in Chattanooga TN June 20th from 3:30 to 7:00 EST at the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga. UTC has kindly donated their GIS Lab.

I've had several people ask for an informal "Learn about QGIS session". So we're covering a few subjects in detail about QGIS - which should lead to more questions and more talk. There will also be an informal discussion about continuing this going forward in some shape or form. For this meetup some knowledge of GIS would be good as we don't have a lot of time to go "This is a vector". There are no snacks/food provided -  BUT - we plan on ending this at one of the fine breweries around the area.

Agenda:

  *   QGIS Community
  *   How to install QGIS
  *   Data Formats
  *   Data Display
  *   Making a Map


So email me for more information. If you are close please make plans to attend. It should be fun.

Randy
