GGRA30H3 Study Guide - Final Guide: Web Map Service, Qgis, Cbmt-Dt
Document Summary
2 qgis gui (graphical user interface) overview 2. This exercise is intended to provide an introduction to three basic components of the qgis desktop: qgis graphical user interface (gui) overview and use, web map service (wms) overview, qgis print composer overview and use. Note that these instructions were originally written to match qgis version 2. 8 but some updates have been done to match qgis version 3. 4. 1 which is now installed in the campus computer labs. If you use another version on your own system, expect at least minor differences in the user interface and layout of functions but the basic operations should still be similar to what is described here. From the start menu, find and start the qgis desktop. Depending on how it has been installed the shortcut may be in all programs | qgis | qgis desktop or in all programs | osgeo4w | qgis desktop. When qgis starts, you are presented with the graphical user interface.
