Learn how to map your land using open source software and freely
available data. This material was presented in a workshop at Oregon
State University last year, and is now available on CD as a self-paced
course.

The course introduces digital mapping tools and techniques (Geographic
Information Systems or GIS), and how small landowners and permaculture
designers can use these tools with freely available data for site
planning. The course provides an excellent introduction to GIS for any
small landowner interested in visualizing terrain of the land,
planning layout of buildings and gardens, and using GIS maps in Google
Earth. You will learn about freely available aerial photos,
topographic data, soil maps, and other spatial layers, as well as open
source software used in this course. The course material includes all
GIS data, step by step tutorials, mapping examples, sources of free
data, and email support. More details about course contents at
