QGIS Regional User Meeting hosted by QGIS Australia #

Venue: IMAS, UTAS, 20 Castray Esplanade, Battery Point TAS 7004
Tickets: $10 AVAILABLE NOW. Only 40 will be available - click here to order yours!

Content #
The day will be quite loosely planned and we will set the goals in the morning. Be prepared to participate - this is not a workshop, nor a conference. We will be actively working on projects that either contribute to the QGIS Project or to QGIS AU workings - such as building resources (symbology, styles), documentation, QGIS AU website. We will have people mentoring each project to help guide the participants and YES you will learn how to use GitHub! We want to share our knowledge, make connections and up-skill our community.
If you have an idea to tackle for the day, bring it ready to be worked on - with clear goals and perhaps a breakdown of tasks. Be prepared to instruct attendees on technical processes as well.
