Who is this training for?
Our PostGIS training course is aimed at those responsible for managing databases of geographic information.
What is the goal of this training?
Attendees will learn how to install and configure PostgreSQL/PostGIS, how to import geographic information through a variety of methods including through QGIS, and how to use PostGIS's many database functions to manage access to their data through roles and permissions and perform complex on-the-fly geoprocessing.
All of our training courses combine presentations with practical exercises, allowing delegates to practice the techniques and concepts being taught. Delegates are supplied with a course manual containing all exercises and presentation materials. Delegates are encouraged to bring any datasets they may find useful during Open Sessions, held at the end of each day where tutors aim to solve any relevant GIS queries or problems.
