DARCA workshop, GIS for Ditch Companies, will be held Monday, November 17 from 9:00 to 4:00 p.m. in the Engineering Building at Colorado State University in Fort Collins, Colorado.
This one-day workshop will provide a basic understanding of Geographic Information Systems (GIS) for use with irrigation system management. Through a hands-on tutorial, the course will provide an overview of GIS and participants will be guided through a lesson that uses real data that will likely be beneficial to your ditch company. Through this workshop you will learn to download data from the Internet, display the data using ArcGIS, and make informative maps.
While this course is designed for beginners, and will demonstrate the basic steps needed to make maps, you should feel free to come even if you are experienced with ArcGIS, as you will be able to ask questions, get help and tips for using ArcGIS, and create your own data and map. The price of the workshop is $100 for DARCA and Colorado Water Congress members and $200 for non-members. Lunch and refreshments are included. There is a limit of 30 participants. For information regarding workshop registration please visit the workshop area of the DARCA website or contact us at 970-412-1960.
