Welcome to this intermediate-level Map Academy course! This course is for existing QGIS users who already have a good basic understanding of the software and are now ready to take their skills to the next level. If you've already done my Map Academy: get mapping quickly, with QGIScourse on here, this is the natural next step. There are more than 90 videos in this next level course, split into the following 8 sections:
Introduction
Writing expressions in QGIS (e.g. to filter layers, style data, or select features +more)
Creating data in QGIS (e.g. using the Research Tools in QGIS, by creating new data, or through advanced digitizing)
The QGIS Processing Toolbox (how it works, what tools there are, how to use Batch Processing +more)
Map design in QGIS (more in-depth instruction on cartographic approaches and design elements)
Automated mapping with QGIS Atlas (this is an absolutely amazing part of QGIS - so powerful, and quick!)
Tips and tricks in QGIS (e.g. tips for working more efficiently, and we'll also learn geometry generator expressions)
Final words (want to see something else on the course?got a specific request?just let me know!)
You can choose which order to do things in, or you can follow each section through in order - it's 100% up to you and designed so that you can dip and and out to get what you need, in short, clear videos with all data provided for you.
I'll take you step-by-step through all of the above, and all data is provided for you. My Udemy courses have learners in more than 160 countries across the world and I'm delighted to be able to bring you this next level QGIS course. With this second Map Academy course, I'm on a mission to help people take a big leap forward with what they can do with QGIS and give them the confidence to use these skills at work in a professional setting, or perhaps in a course of study at university.
By the end of the course, you will be well on your way to becoming a QGIS expert.
I look forward to seeing you on the course!
