Preface

Welcome to the third edition of Learning QGIS. This book aims to introduce you to QGIS 2.14 and show you how to perform core geospatial tasks using this popular open source GIS. It takes you through six chapters from QGIS installation and setup in the first chapter, to the essentials of viewing spatial data in the second chapter. The third chapter covers data creation and editing, followed by the fourth chapter, which offers an introduction to performing spatial analysis in QGIS. In the fifth chapter, you will learn how to create great maps and how to prepare them for print, and the final chapter shows you how you can extend QGIS using the Python scripting language.
