Channel: Hans van der Kwast
Date: 2020-09-07

In this tutorial we're going to gather data for a groundwater study in Malawi and store the data, styling and QGIS project in a GeoPackage that we can easily share with others.

After this tutorial you'll be able to:

- Download the Africa Groundwater Atlas Country Hydrogeology Maps
- Visualise the Africa Groundwater Atlas Country Hydrogeology Maps in QGIS
- Load data from different GeoNode SDI's into QGIS (SADC-GIP, MASDAP)
- Import CSV files (Ramsar Sites Information Service)
- Save data and styling to a GeoPackage
- Save a QGIS project to a GeoPackage

This tutorial has been developed by IHE Delft for the SADC Groundwater Management Institute (SADC-GMI) in cooperation with IGRAC. It has been recorded during the first live online session of the GIS training for Hydrogeolical Applications.

The step by step tuturial is available at IHE Delft OpenCourseWare: https://ocw.un-ihe.org/course/view.php?id=109
