CANCELLED Geospatial Data in R: Mapping

THIS WORKSHOP HAS BEEN RESCHEDULED TO MONDAY, FEBRUARY 8. Register here - https://duke.libcal.com/event/7509689 Please register for the workshop session on February 8th instead. We are happy to arrange an individual consultation or share learning resources with anyone is not able to attend on the new date. Email drew.keener@duke.edu for more information. 

This workshop introduces the use of the R language for producing maps. We will demonstrate the advantages of a code-drive approach such as R for visualizing geospatial data. Participants will gain the skills to quickly and efficiently create a variety of map types for a website, presentation, or publication. In addition to working on hands-on coding exercises, we will also review practical guidance on designing effective maps.

Attendees will need basic familiarity with R and RStudio to follow along with the exercises. Knowledge of tidyverse packages such as ggplot2 and dplyr is also helpful.

This workshop is a companion to Geospatial Data in R: Processing and Analysis, which focuses on data analysis more than visualization. 

This event is offered virtually in accordance with Duke's Coronavirus events policies. A Zoom link will be emailed to registered participants.

The content of the workshop may be recorded. If you are uncomfortable with a recording being published, please contact the instructor at any time prior to the conclusion of the workshop.
