Classes scheduled for January 2015 GIS training at URI.  All classes held at URI’s Kingston Campus.  All classes are hands-on computer training and require no prior knowledge of GIS. 

Using ArcGIS.com ®: Jan. 8, 2015:  This half-day training will introduce participants to ESRI’s online mapping applications available at ArcGIS.com. The training will explore “ready to use” maps and also explore the basic functionality of the applications.  Particular attention will be paid to the datasets available through RIGIS. 

Introduction to GIS:  Jan. 13 – 15, 2015: This three-day training program has been written in collaboration with the University of Connecticut.  In this course you will learn some GIS concepts and become very familiar with the extensive Rhode Island GIS database (RIGIS) while using ESRI’s ArcGIS Desktop 10.2 ® software.
