| Dr. Paulo Raposo | 2018-09-20 | slides |
Over the past few years of KnoxData, we've flirted with some talks in the spatial realm of data, which has often necessitated special software and techniques. While those techniques still apply, Dr. Paulo Raposo, assistant professor in UT Geography, will give us a crash course in GDAL and open source QGIS with follow-along demos, aimed at an audience already familiar with general Python.
Dr. Paulo Raposo is a cartographer and GIS specialist, serving as an Assistant Professor in Geography at the University of Tennessee. His research interests are mainly in map generalization and multiple representation, cartographic design, geometry, and GIS programming.
His current projects include work on digital elevation model (DEM) generalization and terrain analysis, flow map generation, and augmented reality cartography.
