8/2/2023 Esri's MOOC (Massive open online course) on Spatial Data Science: The New Frontier in AnalyticsRead Nowhttps://www.esri.com/training/catalog/5d76dcf7e9ccda09bef61294/spatial-data-science-the-new-frontier-in-analytics/
About this MOOC Use location to find patterns and tackle complex problems. Spatial data science allows analysts to extract deeper insight from data using a comprehensive set of analytical methods and spatial algorithms, including machine learning and deep learning techniques. This course explores the application of spatial data science to uncover hidden patterns and improve predictive modeling. You'll work with powerful analytical tools in Esri's ArcGIS software and learn how to integrate popular open data science packages into your analyses.

Google's Python Class Welcome to Google's Python Class -- this is a free class for people with a little bit of programming experience who want to learn Python. The class includes written materials, lecture videos, and lots of code exercises to practice Python coding. These materials are used within Google to introduce Python to people who have just a little programming experience. The first exercises work on basic Python concepts like strings and lists, building up to the later exercises which are full programs dealing with text files, processes, and http connections. The class is geared for people who have a little bit of programming experience in some language, enough to know what a "variable" or "if statement" is. Beyond that, you do not need to be an expert programmer to use this material. To get started, the Python sections are linked at the left -- Python Set Up to get Python installed on your machine, Python Introduction for an introduction to the language, and then Python Stringsstarts the coding material, leading to the first exercise. The end of each written section includes a link to the code exercise for that section's material. The lecture videos parallel the written materials, introducing Python, then strings, then first exercises, and so on. At Google, all this material makes up an intensive 2-day class, so the videos are organized as the day-1 and day-2 sections. This material was created by Nick Parlante working in the engEDU group at Google. Special thanks for the help from my Google colleagues John Cox, Steve Glassman, Piotr Kaminksi, and Antoine Picard. And finally thanks to Google and my director Maggie Johnson for the enlightened generosity to put these materials out on the internet for free under the Creative Commons Attribution 2.5 license -- share and enjoy! 12/5/2017 Free course about Geographic Information Systems applied to Municipality ManagementRead NowgvSIG has launched a free course about Geographic Information Systems applied to Municipality Management through several video-tutorials.
Currently, you can see the list of topics and the first module available already in [1]. In the next few weeks, they will publish the other modules, that we will include at this playlist: [2] The first two modules are theoretical, about differences between GIS and CAD, and reference systems, very important to understand the rest of the course. From the third one, the modules will be practical, and the cartography will be available for each video. In addition, when the course is finishing it will be possible to get the official certificate given by the gvSIG Association, where it will be obligatory to send a complete exercise. All the information about registration, dates, certification, where to send doubts... is available at the frequent questions section of the first post [1].

The workshop is being offered in Boise, Eugene and Olympia and the registration fee is being subsidized by NWGIS.
Purpose: Provide an educational benefit to members of NWGIS. Provide three one-day workshops in a classroom setting on Esri’s ArcGIS online WebAppBuilder in Idaho, Oregon and Washington. Trainer: The trainer will be Eric Pimpler of GeoSpatial Training Services (the link is external). Format: Classroom style training with each student bringing their own laptop. Handouts will be provided. Workshop Support: Attendees are responsible for their own parking and lodging before and/or after the training. Information about parking and the training room will be sent to registered attendees. A lunch will be provided as part of this workshop. Each workshop will be limited to 24 participants. A waiting list will be maintained. Registration: Registration is online using the NWGIS web site. The fee is $60 per student. The Northwest GIS User Group is subsidizing the three workshops up to $2,000. Cancellations will be permitted up to two weeks prior to the training. Less than two weeks prior to the first class, refunds will not be offered, but substitutions will be possible at any time. Registered students whose plans change can contact individuals on the waiting list to facilitate substitutions. Locations & Dates: Class begin at 8:30 AM, there will be a one-hour lunch break, and conclude about 4:30 – 5 PM. The locations and dates are:
Friday, July 29th, Geospatial Training Services we'll be presenting a free webinar entitled Introduction to Spatial Statistics Toolbox for ArcGIS Desktop. In this webinar we'll give you a high level overview of the available tools, when to use the tools, and demonstrate some of the more popular tools such as Hot Spot Analysis, Cluster and Outlier Analysis, and others.
Space is limited so sign up soon to reserve your space. Sign up at: https://itrain.leadpages.co/introduction-spatial-statistics/ There's a GIS MOOC cycle available free of charge.
This cycle is made up of three different Modules: Module 1: "Introduction to GIS" Module 2: "Layer Editing" Module 3: "Raster Analysis" It will lead participants to how to use and exploit the potentiality of the open source software gvSIG while performing the most common GIS activities. This Course is both addressed to beginners and skilled GIS users who want to learn how to use this software. The Course is open in continuous form and each module requires a participants engagement of around thirty hours. Participants can thus plan individually the time to allocate to the course and complete all the scheduled activities without interfering with their daily work. This Course is completely free of charge except for those participants asking for the corresponding credits of the gvSIG user certification program from the gvSIG Association, that is submitted to the payment of 40 Euro for each module or 100 Euro for the whole cycle. It will be earmarked for the sustainability of the project. For further information about topics, goals…: http://web.gvsig-training.com/index.php/es/quienes-somos-2/noticias-2/145-the-free-mooc-cycle-gvsig-for-users For registration, you have to press "Enroll" at the corresponding Module, and then accept the "Site policy agreement". Finally you will have to register at the web page, or login if you were registered already.  New GIS Course NOW available
A new GIS course entitled Sharing Conservation Knowledge is now available on ConservationTraining. This is the last course of a six course series designed to teach you the fundamentals of GIS. This course focuses on how you ask questions of your spatial data and how to present your results. By the end of this course, you will be able to:
The demonstrations and simulations in this course were created using Esri's ArcGIS 9.3 software; however, on August 20, 2014 a LIVE GIS Seminar Event will be held to show the functionality taught in this course in Esri's ArcGIS 10.1 software. You MUST register for the LIVE GIS Seminar Event, and you can do so on the Sharing Conservation Knowledge course room page.  Visualizing and Analyzing Environmental Data with R
