Fwd: Gentle Introduction to QGIS

[Tim Sutton]

Hi folks

Heres another addition you can make to your resource list - all
content is made available under an open license and we would welcome
comments / corrections / contributions and so on.

http://qgis.org/en/documentation/manuals.html (Gentle Introduction to
GIS section).

Many thanks to the Otto for porting this to LaTeX and making it
available as part of the QGIS documentation resources.

Regards

Thanks for the post. Any chance you'd be willing to enter the metadata
for this on our educational material submission page [1]?

And while I've got everyone on the OSGeo edu list -- I'm sorry I've been
inactive again pushing the group forward. I've had some eldercare issues
that have had me quite distracted.
I see that Ari has posted some new content to our inventory. Anyone else
have other material to add? Please continue to do this! Finally, I still
hope to get a group blog going so we can keep each other more informed
of what we are doing...

Charlie

Ok its added!

http://www.osgeo.org/node/923

Maybe I'm completely biased, but I gave it a 5 star rating :-) I
forgot to mention above also that there are screencasts to accompany
most worksheets at:

http://linfiniti.com/dla

I'm planning to edit them a little more so that they all come in under
10min and then I will post them to youtube...



Thanks

Tim
