What will I learn?
This Georeferencing Course equips you with hands-on skills to ready images and scanned maps, pick fitting coordinate systems, and choose precise ground control points in tricky landscapes. You will learn to use transformations in QGIS, ArcGIS, and GDAL, check RMSE and residuals, handle spatial mistakes, and create solid landslide records with proper details, quality checks, and clear notes on uncertainties.
