Learn how to map your land using open source software and freely
available data. This self-paced, video-based course on DVD introduces
digital mapping tools and techniques (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, and how to view and
manipulate the data using the open source GIS software QGIS. Details at:
