Advanced Spatial Data Management & Analysis using QGIS

Advanced Spatial Data Management & Analysis using QGIS

This hands-on workshop is designed to help participants move beyond basic GIS and confidently apply QGIS for real-world spatial problem solving. Through practical demonstrations and use-case-driven exercises, participants will learn how to analyze spatial patterns, visualize temporal change, automate workflows, and publish interactive web maps using open-source tools. The course bridges the gap between theory and application, making GIS skills immediately usable in academic, professional, and project-based contexts.

Course Highlights

• Advanced spatial data cleaning, transformation, and enrichment

• Attribute- and geometry-based queries and spatial joins

• Temporal mapping and animation of dynamic phenomena

• Terrain analysis, density mapping, and spatial statistics

• Network analysis for accessibility and service planning

• Workflow automation using QGIS Model Builder

• Creation of interactive web maps for sharing insights

• Real datasets from health, urban, agriculture, and environment domains

Who Should Enroll

• Students & research scholars in Geography, GIS, Remote Sensing

• Professionals in Urban Planning, Health, Environment, Agriculture

• NGO and development sector practitioners

• Government & consulting professionals working with spatial data

• Anyone with basic QGIS knowledge looking to advance their skills

Course Highlights

Advanced Spatial Data Cleaning, Transformation & Enrichment: Learn how to prepare real-world spatial datasets for analysis by correcting geometry errors, resolving topology issues, transforming coordinate systems, and enriching layers with derived indicators. Participants will work with messy, real-life data and convert it into analysis-ready GIS datasets.

Attribute- & Geometry-Based Queries with Spatial Joins: Master advanced querying techniques using attribute logic, expressions, and geometry-based conditions. You will perform spatial joins to integrate multiple datasets such as population, facilities, land parcels, and administrative boundaries—essential for planning and decision-making workflows.

Temporal Mapping & Animation of Dynamic Phenomena: Explore how to visualize and analyze change over time using temporal datasets. Learn to animate disease outbreaks, land-use transitions, rainfall trends, crop cycles, and urban expansion using TimeManager and QGIS temporal tools, and export animations for reports and presentations.

Terrain Analysis, Density Mapping & Spatial Statistics: Develop skills in terrain modelling using DEMs to derive slope, aspect, elevation zones, and terrain profiles. Apply kernel density estimation and spatial statistics to identify hotspots, clustering, and spatial patterns relevant to environmental monitoring, crime analysis, and public health studies.

Network Analysis for Accessibility & Service Planning: Perform network-based spatial analysis to calculate shortest paths, service catchments, and nearest facility access. These techniques are critical for planning schools, hospitals, emergency services, transportation networks, and infrastructure development.

Workflow Automation Using QGIS Model Builder: Learn to automate repetitive GIS tasks by designing graphical workflows that chain multiple operations such as buffering, clipping, overlay analysis, and statistical summarization. This improves efficiency, reproducibility, and consistency in professional GIS projects.

Creation of Interactive Web Maps for Sharing Insights: Transform GIS outputs into interactive, web-ready maps using qgis2web. Learn to publish maps with dynamic layers, pop-ups, legends, and interactivity suitable for dashboards, NGO reports, project websites, and stakeholder communication.
