[Georeference in QGIS](https://mapping.share.library.harvard.edu/tutorials/georeferencing/qgis/) Author: Belle Lipton Description: Tutorial for how to georeference a map in QGIS ---------- [Census Data Primer](https://mapping.share.library.harvard.edu/tutorials/census-data-primer/) Author: Belle Lipton Description: Step by step tutorial series walking through how to download demographic data from NHGIS, join data, clip it to a certain geography, and normalize the values. When the tutorial ends, you will be in good shape to style the data in a static map, upload it to ArcGIS online for styling, and so forth. Each of the steps (download, clip, join, normalize) are a different page that can be used as standalone. It's written for QGIS. ---------- [Georeference Library Digital Collections Using Allmaps](https://mapping.share.library.harvard.edu/tutorials/georeferencing/allmaps/) Author: Belle Lipton Description: This guide lets people find digital map collections from any IIIF compatible digital collections and learn how to georeference them using the open browser tool, AllMaps ---------- [Extract OpenStreetMap Features](https://mapping.share.library.harvard.edu/tutorials/openstreetmap/extractbyfeature/) Author: Belle Lipton Description: This is a tutorial for how to obtain OpenStreetMap data at the feature by feature level (i.e., return a shapefile that is all the shopping malls in Jakarta, all the ice cream parlors, all the fire hydrants, etc) using the QGIS plugin QuickOSM. It covers how to interpret the feature tagging in OSM, and how to construct API queries using the QGIS plugin graphical user interface (no coding necessary!) ---------- [Extract OpenStreetMap Layers](https://mapping.share.library.harvard.edu/tutorials/openstreetmap/extractbylayer/) Author: Belle Lipton Description: This is a tutorial that walks through how to extract the standard built & natural environment layers from OSM via geofabrik, so you pick an area and the download comes with shapefiles for: roads, buildings, waterways, land use, etc ---------- [Using mapping/GIS for community-based research, participatory projects, and equity/diversity/social justice](https://www.lib.sfu.ca/find/other-materials/data-gis/gis/community-research) Author: Sarah Zhang Description: This web guide has gathered nearly 2000 views since the page was created in 2021. It has been included in readings for a few coursed at my institution. I was also from time to time approached by outside researchers who expressed interest in the guide. The guide aims to raise awareness for people who are not necessarily familiar with GIS or mapping around using GIS for community-based, participatory, or social advocacy work. ---------- [QGIS Collection](https://mapping.share.library.harvard.edu/tags/qgis/) Author: Belle Lipton Description: A collection of tutorials about doing common tasks in QGIS (adding a spreadsheet as point data, adding a basemap, changing projection, downloading the software, clipping, joining, georeferencing, normalizing datasets) ---------- [How to use Social Explorer data in ArcGIS Pro][1] (videos) by Jennie Murack ---------- [A tutorial on REST endpoints][2] by Mike Dolbow This repository is intended to serve as a basic, introductory tutorial on using REST endpoints, using the Esri ArcGIS Server REST API as an example (although other browsable RESTful services could also be referenced).
