All Things Urban

Whether you're an urban planner, architect, designer, researcher or student, GIS has become one of the most valuable and in-demand skills for urban professionals, helping them better understand places, communicate ideas, and make more informed decisions.

In this free live webinar by The GeoSpatial Hub powered by All Things Urban, we'll explore five practical ways GIS is used in real urban projects, from finding and analysing spatial data to creating professional maps and integrating AI into modern workflows. You'll also see a live QGIS demonstration and discover how these skills can be applied in your own work, even if you're completely new to GIS.

We'll conclude with an overview of our upcoming GIS & Spatial Analysis for Urbanists course and an open Q&A, where you can ask any questions about the programme, learning experience, or whether it's the right fit for your goals.

You'll learn:

• Why GIS is becoming an essential skill for urban professionals
• Five practical GIS workflows you can start using today
• How AI is changing GIS and spatial analysis
• A live QGIS demonstration using a real urban planning example
• What to expect from the GIS & Spatial Analysis course

This webinar is especially relevant if you:

– Work in urban planning and want to become more confident and independent with spatial data, rather than relying on GIS specialists for every analysis.

– Come from architecture or urban design and want to strengthen the analytical side of your profile, broaden your career options, or move towards planning, urban analytics, mobility or research.

– Work with cities in another field and are curious about how GIS could help you better understand places, communicate evidence and make more informed decisions.

No previous GIS experience is required. The webinar is designed to help you understand where GIS can fit into your own work and career, before deciding how deeply you want to develop the skill.
