Do you want to engage students with real-world data & build skills they can use in their careers? Apply for QGreenland's Educator Workshop to create learning resources using Greenland-focused data that can serve the larger community. Visit bit.ly/QGEducator for more info!

Do you want to develop standards-based geospatial data practices? Apply for the QGreenland Researcher Workshop to discuss open-science practices and tools, work through data-based exercises, and develop collaboration practices. Learn more and apply: bit.ly/QGResearchers

For over 20 years, QGIS has been able to access computer folders through the Browser 🧐 In ArcGIS, for ArcCatalog it was necessary to use Connect to Folder to search and map a (single) folder Now in ArcGIS Pro 3.1 you can do it like in #QGIS 😎 Free yourself! Use QGIS 😏🤓
