Do you have a list of street addresses crying out to be mapped? Have a list of zip codes or census tracts you wish to associate with other data?  We’ll start with addresses and other things spatial and end with points on a map, ready for visualization and analysis. 

All sessions are one hour and assume participants have no previous experience using GIS. Sessions will be hands-on demonstrations with step-by-step tutorials and expert assistance. All sessions will be held on Wednesdays from 2PM to 3PM and are free and open to the UVa and larger Charlottesville community. Click here for a full list of our Fall sessions

• All sessions will be in-person, in the Scholars’ Lab (Shannon Library 308).
• We will provide laptops for attendees. 
• Walk-ins are welcome, but due to a limited number of laptops, we strongly encourage registering. If you're waitlisted, please contact us at uvagis@virginia.edu.
• Class handout and presentation will be made available on the Fall 2025 Workshops tab of our Teaching Resources page.
• There will not be a virtual option this semester. We apologize for any inconvenience.
