Visualization and WebGIS
In the WebGIS course, students learn how to create web maps. Python, HTML, and JavaScript are used for this purpose. We will also be working with the PostgreSQL database to store the data we want to present.
During this WebGIS course, we will first look at the various components needed to create a web map. We’ll start by adding a background to the web map. Next, we’ll use OpenLayers to add several geographic features to the web map. Then, we’ll import the data we’re interested in into PostGIS (a database). After that, we’ll add data from the database to the web map. Finally, we’ll perform simple GIS analyses in the web map.

Contact usThe course begins with a presentation explaining the features and capabilities of WebGIS. You will then learn the basics of programming with Python, HTML, and JavaScript. Today, you will start creating your first map. You will learn how to set up a map project and the steps involved. You will begin by adding a background and then learn how to import geographic features.
On the second day, you will learn how to work with data. You will learn where to find different types of data and how to import them. You will also learn the best ways to incorporate the data into your map.
On the final day, you will learn how to perform analyses using the data you have added to your map. You will learn a number of different analysis methods and how to best visualize the results of your analyses.
