Introduction to Data Collection

This workshop will provide the instructor with introductory skills in GPS and GIS as applied to agriculture. Participants will learn the use of GPS for simple data collection and GIS for displaying maps of this data. The purpose of this workshop is to give participating instructors the hands-on experience in order to use these fundamental exercises in the classroom to teach these concepts of geospatial data collection. Materials used in this workshop were made possible by funding from John Deere Foundation.
