THIS TRAINING IS NOW FULLY BOOKED!

This is a training and capacity building event organised by the Consumer Data Research Centre (CDRC) in conjunction with the National Centre for Research Methods (NCRM), ESRC funded research projects.

Course Contents:

In this one day course we will explore how to use R to import, manage and process spatial data. We will also cover the process of making choropleth maps, as well as some basic spatial analysis. Finally, we will cover the use of loops to make multiple maps quickly and easily, one of the major benefits of using a scripting language to make maps, rather than traditional graphic point-and-click interface.

Target audience:

No previous experience of coding is required, although participants would benefit from some experience of using spatial data (e.g. Google Maps).

Course leader:

Dr Nick Bearman – Geospatial Training Solutions
