Course description

The Columbia Mountains Institute partnered with Selkirk College to host this one day course, instructed by Keyes Lessard and Chris Gray. Participants gathered GPS data, downloaded the data, and integrated GPS data with on-line mapping tools and data sources. By the end of the day, students were familiar with various GPS data collection techniques and integration options using freely accessible mapping resources. These skills can be applied to enhance a variety of field-based occupational and recreational interests.

The Columbia Mountains Institute was pleased to partner with the Selkirk College Geospatial Research Centre to offer this course.
