QGIS Training: Spatial Analysis, Raster Edition (July 10, in Japanese)

Course features and what you will learn

Course features

• This is a practical course that systematically teaches analysis with raster data, from loading and visualizing raster data to analysis, reclassification, and calculation.
• The content is designed for use in a wide range of fields, such as terrain analysis and satellite data analysis.
• The course carefully explains key points that are hard to learn through self-study, such as how to set a coordinate reference system and what to do when problems occur.
• The course works together with QGIS LAB by MIERUNE, so participants can keep learning on their own after it ends.

What you will learn

• Basic knowledge of raster data and effective ways to visualize it
• Terrain analysis with elevation data (digital elevation model, DEM), including calculating slope and aspect
• Methods for reclassifying raster values
• Numerical calculations and conditional analysis with the Raster Calculator
• Analysis methods that combine raster and vector data, such as masking and clipping

Who this course is for

• Anyone who wants to learn how to work with and analyze raster data in QGIS from the basics
• Anyone who wants to take on analysis and visualization with terrain and environmental data
• Anyone who has completed “QGIS Training: Spatial Analysis, Vector Edition” and wants to build their skills further

Common challenges and needs

• Having raster data such as a DEM but not knowing how to use it
• Wanting to take on terrain analysis such as slope, aspect, and sunlight
• Wanting to analyze several raster datasets in combination

Learning goals

1. Understand the basics of raster data and learn practical QGIS operations
2. Learn to visualize terrain characteristics such as slope, aspect, and elevation difference effectively with raster analysis
3. Learn to use raster analysis methods to analyze data according to your purpose
4. Develop the ability to understand phenomena from multiple perspectives through spatial analysis that combines raster and vector data

Course fee

• General ticket: ¥33,000 (tax included)
• Student ticket: ¥3,300 (tax included)

Certificate

• This course is accredited under the QGIS Certification Programme.
• MIERUNE Inc. donates 20 EUR to the QGIS project for each certificate it issues.
