Details:

This one-day interactive section after the LACCCB 2018 conference is tailored to people that have participated on the homonymous short course before the conference. The objective of the interactive section is to work on GIS projects focused on participant’s own research data and needs, using the techniques learned on the short course. Participants will be paired and the instructor will guide projects individually, speaking in English, Spanish, French or Portuguese. Participants will need to use their own laptops with a free trial version of the ArcGIS software installed, and discuss their GIS needs with the instructor prior to the interactive section.
