Blue Marble Geographics is pleased to announce its first Global Mapper public training classes, to be held in Melbourne Australia during the week of August 27th.
Blue Marble’s geospatial data manipulation, visualisation, and conversion solutions are used worldwide by thousands of GIS analysts at software, oil and gas, mining, civil engineering, surveying, and technology companies, as well as governmental and university organisations.
The Global Mapper training courses will be based on Blue Marble’s course design, reviewing appropriate concepts and applying them to the software. The courses are being held in conjunction with the ISPRS conference and are one-day events.
Attendance at this class will provide both novice and experienced users an opportunity to learn about and use the principal features and functions of Global Mapper (v. 13.2).
Employing a hands-on approach, each class will cover the key elements of the software including interface navigation; file, layer, and project management; data access and importing; feature creation and editing; cartographic rendering and visual customisation; 3-D modelling and analysis; and data exporting and sharing.
No previous experience is necessary to attend the class, however a working knowledge of the principals of GIS, as well as the key associated file formats, is recommended. Participants should bring a windows-based laptop computer for the purpose of using the software during the class. Evaluation copies of Global Mapper (v. 13.2) as well as the necessary sample data files will be provided to all attendees, although attendees must bring their own laptop.
“We are pleased to roll out our first Australian-based Global Mapper training program,” stated Blue Marble President Patrick Cunningham. “We know these courses will be well received and we are excited to provide our users with assistance in leveraging the program to its fullest extents.”
Registration is now open, and interested users can sign up here.
Space is limited for these one-day training courses so interested parties are encouraged to act quickly.
