Download the workshop materials** 63 | 64 | Download the workshop materials by visiting the GitHub repository: 65 | 66 | [https://github.com/dlab-berkeley/Geospatial-Fundamentals-in-QGIS](https://github.com/dlab-berkeley/Geospatial-Fundamentals-in-QGIS) 67 | 68 | To download the repository, click the green button in the top right hand 69 | corner that says "Code" and then select "Download ZIP". You can then 70 | unzip the contents of the downloaded folder somewhere accessible on your 71 | local computer (we recommend your Desktop). 72 | 73 | If you are a Git user, simply clone this repository by opening a 74 | terminal and typing: “git clone 75 | https://github.com/dlab-berkeley/Geospatial-Fundamentals-in-QGIS.git" 76 | 77 | We will take a few minutes at the start of the workshop to make sure 78 | everyone has QGIS installed and the workshop materials downloaded. 79 | Please feel free to email 80 | [dlab-frontdesk@berkeley.edu](mailto:dlab-frontdesk@berkeley.edu) 81 | or visit our help desk at 82 | [https://dlab.berkeley.edu/frontdesk](https://dlab.berkeley.edu/frontdesk) 83 | if you have any questions. 84 | 85 | **3. Is QGIS not working on your laptop?** 86 | 87 | Attend the workshop anyway, we can provide you with a cloud-based 88 | solution (DataHub or Binder) until you figure out the problems with your 89 | local installation. 90 | 91 | If you have a Berkeley CalNet ID, you can run these lessons on UC 92 | Berkeley's DataHub by clicking [this 93 | link](https://datahub.berkeley.edu/hub/user-redirect/git-pull?repo=https%3A%2F%2Fgithub.com%2Fdlab-berkeley%2FGeospatial-Fundamentals-in-QGIS&urlpath=tree%2FGeospatial-Fundamentals-in-QGIS%2F&branch=master). 94 | By using this link, you can save your work and come back to it at any 95 | time. When you want to return to your saved work, just go straight to 96 | DataHub 97 | ([https://datahub.berkeley.edu](https://datahub.berkeley.edu)), 98 | sign in, and you click on the GIS-fundamentals-with-QGIS folder. 99 | 100 | If you don't have a Berkeley CalNet ID, you can still run these lessons 101 | in the cloud, by clicking this [Binder 102 | button](https://notebooks.gesis.org/binder/jupyter/user/dlab-berkeley-g-mentals-in-qgis-k22srt2e/tree). 103 | By using this button, you cannot save your work unfortunately. 104 | 105 | Other Resources: 106 | 107 | - User guide: 108 | > [https://docs.qgis.org/3.16/en/docs/user\_manual/](https://docs.qgis.org/3.16/en/docs/user_manual/) 109 | 110 | - Training manual: 111 | > [http://docs.qgis.org/latest/en/docs/training\_manual/](http://docs.qgis.org/latest/en/docs/training_manual/) 112 | 113 | - Other training materials: 114 | > [https://qgis.org/en/site/forusers/trainingmaterial/index.html](https://qgis.org/en/site/forusers/trainingmaterial/index.html) 115 | 116 | - Community support: 117 | > [https://qgis.org/en/site/forusers/support.html](https://qgis.org/en/site/forusers/support.html) 118 | 119 | ***NOTE: D-Lab workshops normally start 10 minutes after the scheduled 120 | start time (“Berkeley Time”).
