Do you need a digital map of zip codes or would you like information about parcels in an inner-city neighborhood? Have you ever wondered how to get geographic data off the Internet? Geographic data is everywhere from information about sewer pipes to data about wetlands. This class will show you the in and outs to finding geographic data. The hands-on nature of the workshop will allow you to leave with the data "virtually" in your hands.
