Description:
Learn everything you ever wanted to know about how to use a handheld GPS receiver! These 3 hour workshops are designed to teach you about navigation and data collection with GPS receivers without taking up and entire day of the work week. These workshops are designed for people with no GPS experience, or basic GPS users who want to learn more about this ever more important technology. GPS & You I is the first of the series, and is required to take GPS & You II and III (you do not have to take II in order to take III). Courses will be offered throughout the year on evenings and Saturday mornings, providing flexibility not found in our other workshops. While instruction will be based on the provided handheld GPS units (Garmin GPS 76), we encourage participants to bring their own GPS units to the course.
GPS & You II: Pictures, Points & Places - This course builds on GPS & You I to by taking the next step: downloading GPS data from your GPS unit on to your computer for use in GIS programs and Google Earth. In addition, we will cover the collection of digital photos in conjunction with GPS points, providing an interactive map of your pictures in GIS and Google Earth.
General topics:
* linking pictures to points in GIS and Google Earth
Participants will learn to:
* export GPS data to GIS files and Google Earth
