Just want to thank you for the workshop last night. I feel much more confident about maybe being able to make some local park maps.
This 2.5 hour online course is part 2 of Navigation Sports' introdction to Orienteering Mapping course. In it, you will learn how to use the Open Orienteering Mapper drawing tools. Participants will spend the majority of the class practicing using the software.
In this module you will practice the following:
Participants who also sign up for the June 8th Starting a Map Project course will have a chance to continue the project they set up in that class. If you did not sign up for that class you can work on a project of your choosing or on files provided by the instructor.
During this course, we will be using Open Orienteering Mapper (OOM), which is a free mapping software. You can download it at https://www.openorienteering.org/apps/mapper/.
Participants will be provided with more information about setting up the software after registering.
Using Zoom
A Zoom link will be provided to registered participants by email. Please be set up and ready to go for the start of class with working audio and the software downloaded and installed so we don't have to take precious course time to sort that out.
Please participate from a laptop or desktop computer so you can use the software as intended. We strongly recommend you also connect to Zoom from a second device so you can follow the instructor on Zoom while using your computer to practice the skills being presented (preferably also with zoom so you can share screen if need be).
This class is in the past. Registration is not available.
