Posted on: 24th September 2026

Instructor: N/A • Language: N/A

Master advanced QGIS editing, 2.5D maps, grid maps, symbology, dynamic labels, and map layout for professional GIS presentations.

Description

Getting comfortable in QGIS is one thing, producing maps that hold up in a report or presentation is another. This course focuses on the advanced side, covering the digitizing toolbar, 2.5D maps, grid maps, dynamic labels, and detailed map layout work with every tool explained and demonstrated.

This Course Offers

  • Advanced digitizing toolbar work with tips and tricks for shapefile editing beyond the basics
  • 2.5D map creation and multiple symbology approaches, plus 2.5D bar diagram style maps
  • Grid map construction covering all tools and map settings for a presentable output
  • Advanced symbology and dynamic label techniques, so your maps communicate clearly rather than just displaying data
  • Map layout mastery including title, legend, north arrow, scale, plus embedded HTML, websites, and attribute tables for interactive results

Why We Love This Course

  1. It explains the why alongside the how, which means you can adapt techniques rather than only repeating steps.
  2. The layout section goes further than most, including HTML and attribute tables inside maps, which is unusual and genuinely useful.
  3. With fifty lectures, fourteen sections, twelve quizzes, and downloadable resources, there is enough structure to actually finish and retain the material.
  4. It is built for people who already know QGIS basics and want to move into advanced territory rather than repeat fundamentals.

GIS work gets judged on the map that comes out the other end, and presentation quality is often what separates one analyst from another. Do you want maps that function, or maps people actually want to look at? Enrollment is open, and only an interest in GIS is required.

Course Eligibility

  • This course is perfect for anyone wanting to advance their GIS profession with advanced QGIS topics.
  • It suits users focused on advanced editing, 2.5D maps, grid maps, or bar diagram type maps.
  • Researchers and professionals preparing map presentations, and anyone wanting to master dynamic labels and professional map layouts, will find the layout sections especially useful.

Course Requirements

  • Only an interest in learning GIS and QGIS is required.
  • Some familiarity with QGIS basics will help you follow the advanced techniques more comfortably.
  • A computer capable of running QGIS is needed to work through the practical exercises.
