- What's on
Maps allow you to tell many stories about places your audience is familiar with, making it easy to immediately situate data in relation to its context. But they are first and foremost a tool to discover and explore. Geospatial data is unique in many ways, and as such requires specific tools and knowledge to work with it. In this workshop, you will learn about what makes GIS data special, get an overview of the tools available in the web mapping ecosystem, and make your own interactive map by reusing a template provided by NUS libraries!
Please bring your laptop so you can benefit from the hands-on experience.

Gaetan has been a longstanding discreet advocate for Open Source technologies and Open Access to data for more than a decade.
