Digital Skills Workshops for PhD Students (UNIGE and Geneva Graduate Institute)

Mapping Spatial Data, Thursday, 6 June, 10:00-13:00, online

Location data forms an integral part of any research project. This workshop will teach you how to properly store any spatial data and how to best make use of it in your project. Using the web based research environment 'nodegoat' (https://nodegoat.net) we will cover multiple strategies on how to store your spatial data and will show you how this data can add value to your project.
