This full-day workshop will provide you with an introduction to SQL and relational database management systems (RDBMS) with a special focus on using databases to maintain, query, and modify spatial data. Using PostgreSQL and its spatial extension PostGIS, we will explore using SQL to perform tasks you may have previously performed using a desktop GIS. ETL processes, data analytics, and modeling can all be extended and enhanced through the use of SQL in a spatially-enabled database.
You must bring your own laptop to this workshop. Prior to the workshop, install the necessary software: https://www.learnspatialsql.com/getting-started/
