SYNOPSIS This three-day course will be focusing on essential geospatial analytics skills using QGIS and GEODA software. The first day of courses will begin with focusing on basic knowledge and method coverage. Include developing and managing online questionnaires, including data creation, transformation, and dashboard presentations. Subsequent sessions cover digital mapping processes, where participants learn to create polygons, lines, and points and transform data into spatial elements. Later on, it focuses on producing digital mappings using raster layering and Google Maps integration, concluding with georeferencing and practical analyses such as point pattern analysis and heat maps.
On the 2nd day, the workshop will focus on data manipulation and analysis. by introducing vector analysis, including overlay and buffering analysis, followed by network analysis covering network links and shortest path analysis. Terrain spatial analytics is explored with applications of SRTM, slope analysis, and TPI computation. Spatial statistics and an introduction to database management will be covered later on.
The last day starts with an introduction to Exploratory Spatial Data Analysis (ESDA) and statistical analyses, progressing to workshops that include Local Indicator of Spatial Association (LISA) and spatial distribution data analysis. The next topic covers the introduction of unsupervised spatial regression techniques and the application of Python in QGIS for automation.
