Exploring Google Maps

There is a lot more to Google Maps than meets the eye. Join Data Visualization & GIS Librarian John Clark to get a glimpse of what goes on “under the hood” of this online mapping resource and how you can use it to make your own customized maps. Participants will learn how to contribute their own content to a Google Map as well as many other tips and tricks for creating useful and well designed maps with nothing more than a web browser. Windows laptops will be provided for all participants, but feel free to bring your own. This workshop will be held on Wednesday, September 12th, from 12:15pm to 1:00pm, in Skillman 004.

Lunch provided. Please RSVP John Clark (clarkjh@lafayette.edu) to reserve a seat. 18 seats available.
