Intermediate/Advanced GIS for TeachersAbstract: This workshop styled presentation is designed to build upon participants' prior knowledge and experience with GIS to start performing more technically advanced tasks in ArcGIS Online. After a brief refresher with the basic functions of GIS, participants will be walked through multiple processes to add and stylize layers to AGO. Emphasis will be on the types of data, and the locations where data can be obtained from. The goal is to equip participants with new tools which they can incorporate into their own classrooms. From this workshop participants will better understand the analysis capabilities of ArcGIS, and the methods that can be used to add more complex data sets to interactive maps.
