Enrolment options
Specialty Courses
This online introductory course for people with little or no experience of GIS will provide an overview of features in QGIS – a freely available GIS software package commonly used by archaeologists. While the skills learned during this course are applicable to archaeology in general, there will be a focus on use of the programme for maritime archaeology. In their own time, participants will watch seven recorded video tutorials (total time 1.5hours) with accompanying exercises and assignments - therefore the overall course will take several hours depending on the participant's ability. To complete the course and earn NAS credits it is compulsory to attend at least one of three hour long live online sessions with an expert tutor to experience a final presentation and ask any required questions. They are scheduled 10, 15 and 20 March 2025. £40 Course fee. 5 credits for NAS members.
