[Qgis-user] Training Material - issues!

[Randal Hale]

I took a look at the materials:

  * Make sure you get the training_manual_exercise_data.zip from
    http://qgis.org/downloads/data/
  * My first exercise (and I may be guilty of skipping ahead) was here:
    https://docs.qgis.org/2.8/en/docs/training_manual/introduction/preparation.html
    and it asked for the roads.shp file to be added.
      o the roads.shp file is located under
        training_manual_exercise_data/exercise_data/epsg4326/roads.shp
      o The rivers and buildings are located there also.


Good luck - I hope that helps some.
