Online Mapping is a specialized type of GIS mapping using interactive, online maps. A free and easy approach to this type of mapping can be found through a variety of free Google software products (Google Earth, Google Maps, Google SketchUp). Although weak in data analysis, Google tools excel at interactive maps and collaborative mapping.

 
  We currently offer two online mapping workshops. Workshops are offered monthly at different locations throughout New Hampshire.
