In their everyday work, natural resource professionals deal with complex environmental issues. These professionals also play an important role when helping others understand and address natural resource issues in their decision making and local planning. Computer tools can help!
You can use computer tools to find and access data from local, state, and federal sources. Some computer tools allow you to make professional looking, customized maps with no required software. Other tools model impacts, indicating the potential consequences that accompany land use change.
Training Opportunities
As natural resource professionals, DNR staff have to deal with complex environmental issues. In the regional offices around the state, staff are often called upon to help the public understand and manage these complex issues. Computer tools can help!
These free, hands-on workshops will increase your awareness of and ability to use web-based computer tools that will save you time, increase your efficiency, and help you produce meaningful and useful products, like customized maps. You can use these computer tools to define critical resource issues, help groups tackling important local issues, or you can use the resulting products in your research, reports, or presentations.
You don’t need to know GIS at all to benefit from these workshops. Don't miss this free opportunity.
