Because of too many advantages, the software is used by many prominent companies. The data acquisition in the GIS is the process of sampling signals that measure the physical conditions of the real world and convert the resulting samples into digital numeric values that can be manipulated by a computer. GIS Map design is the process of creating a map to represent geographic information. The course of GIS Data Acquisition and Map Design is an initiative by Coursera and the University of Toronto for learners who are keen to learn about GIS. 

GIS Data Acquisition and Map Design training will be given by the experts of the University of Toronto to the students through the online mode.

Introduction to GIS Mapping

A geographic information system is one that creates, manages, analyses, and maps all types of data. It connects data to the map and integrates the location with all types of descriptive information. GIS mapping is the process of inputting the data layers into the GIS System to generate a map. The course Introduction to GIS Mapping is designed by the experts for providing the foundational knowledge of GIS mapping to the interested learners. 

Introduction to GIS Mapping training is an initiative of the Coursera and the University of Toronto to provide in-depth knowledge of GIS Mapping. This is the online, self-paced course available on the Coursera platform. The course shall train students in GIS, Mapping, and Spatial Analysis. The candidates will learn about the process of getting started with the software of GIS, recording the locations using coordinates, and making the two-dimensional and three-dimensional earth. This is the first of the four courses provided by the Coursera on GIS Mapping. The candidates will also receive Introduction to GIS Mapping certification by the Coursera by the end of the course.
