The 12th annual society for Conservation GIS (SCGIS) is offering free pre-workshops on different aspects of the Conservation GIS courses. One of the courses that I particularly found interesting is that the workshop no 1 "Working with ModelBuilder and Python for Productivity". It is interesting because the non-programmer conservationist with GIS background can will get benefits from it. If you are new to GIS and have rarely used model builder, I bet it will take you to the next level in the use of model builder. I myself, am not a python programmer, I think the workshop will help anyone build their confidence in digging into those crazy codes that appear, sometimes right before the common "ARC Atom Bomb Crashes".
So, if you are attending the conference, do not miss these workshops. There are some other including Marine GIS. I wonder if any of those workshops involve the use of Marxan. The deadline to apply for the pre-conference workshop is June 26th. The conference itself starts from July 18th to 21st. The last day to register for the conference is June 17th.
If you are interested and would like to know, here is the breakdown for the registration fees:
$110—SCGIS members
