Pop-ups, filters, clustering, advanced symbology. There are many ways to personalize your maps, enhancing the story your data tells. We’ll dive into some of the more advanced functionality that allows you to fine-tune your Web Maps. Don't be put off by "advanced", though, this session is beginner friendly. 

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 Spring sessions
