This 2.5 hour online course is part 2 of Navigation Sports' Introduction to Orienteering Mapping course. In it, you will learn how to use OCAD's drawing tools. Participants will spend the majority of the class practicing using the software.

In this module you will practice the following:

• Using basic drawing tools
• Using shape manipulation tools
• Tracing base material

Upcoming classes: There are no scheduled classes. If you would like to request a class, email jeff@navigationsports.ca

This 2.5 hour online course is part 4 of Navigation Sports' Introduction to Orienteering Mapping course. In it, you will practice adding new colours and symbols in the mapping software while adding key map elements to prepare your map for printing.

This module is set-up as a tutorial-style practice. Participants will also be provided with a take-away reference to use in future projects.

This course takes place over four 3-hour sessions in the classroom. Each session covers a different aspect of drawing contours:

• Bezier curves – learn the elusive tricks of drawing smoothly curved contours in the shape you want
• Interpreting lidar base material – learn how to translate in your mind what you’re seeing on the screen to what the terrain will look like
• What contours show – learn how to draw contours that show a balanced representation of different terrain elements such as high and low points, relative elevation, steepness, and shapes
• Contours and the rest of the map – learn how to draw contours in harmony with other prominent features such as trails, lakes, and streams cliffs.
