Introduction to QGIS: Affordable Tools for Forestry Mapping

Greenspring Bioinnovation Hub

Learn about QGIS, a powerful open-source platform, its core features, including tools like Spatial Analyst, and how they can be applied.

Mapping and spatial analysis are critical to sustainable forest management, but traditional GIS tools often have significant licensing costs.This session introduces QGIS, a powerful open-source platform that provides many of the same functions as proprietary software, with no licensing fees. We’ll walk through its core features, including tools like Spatial Analyst, which in other programs require costly add-ons, and demonstrate how they can be applied in forestry.The webinar includes a prerecorded tutorial that highlights how QGIS works in practice, followed by a discussion with Kari Easthouse, Digital Forestry Consultant, on how organizations can integrate it into their operations.This webinar is part of a series showcasing innovative technologies and practical tools that enhance how forestry professionals collect, analyze, and apply data.
