The GeoHub workshop does not require any mapping experience and is open to students and staff across OSUN member institutions.

You will be shown some simple ways for data analysis, and most importantly, how to export your data for easy presentation. In this workshop, you'll be introduced to Google Earth Pro, free desktop software that has advanced GIS and mapping features, allowing users to create maps, import and export GIS data, and access historical images.

It provides some beginner-level GIS techniques through a medium that most of us have seen or used before in a different context. OSUN's GeoHub is organizing a mapping workshop for absolute beginners and those interested to learn more about various GIS features of Google Earth Pro.Īt times, GIS (Geographic Information Systems) might seem unapproachable and "scary", but there is a wide variety of tools out there that can make the scary quickly become familiar.
