Ski Atlas of the Alps

Ski Atlas of the Alps ¶

As a ski enthusiast, I have repeatedly accessed and studied ski area maps, as provided by various resorts, in order to plan my downhills or to understand the features of the various resorts. Maps have always fascinated me, in the rich, clear and immersive manner in which they provide various levels of information. So, when the time came to decide on an MYP (Middle Year Project) topic in high school, I looked for a project on mapping. I resorted to researching online and asking experienced professionals in the field. I learned that GIS is the technology used to create maps and I quickly combined this with my love for skiing. At this point, I had only a general idea of the content I wanted to create. However, a GIS professional told me about a website that collects geographical data about ski resorts, including pistes and lift facilities, rich with data like areas, lengths, types, etc. So, I decided to create a ski map atlas, showing resort details.

QGreenland: A Greenland GIS package ¶

QGreenland is a free geospatial data package to support interdisciplinary Greenland-focused research, teaching, decision making, and collaboration. QGreenland combines key datasets into a unified, all-in-one GIS analysis and visualization environment for offline and online use with QGIS. QGreenland is designed with the interdisciplinary geoscience research community in mind, though datasets cover many topics (e.g., glaciology, roads and buildings, satellite imagery, oceanography, environmental management, and more).

Code of Conduct ¶

Like the technical community as a whole, the QGIS team and community is made up of a mixture of professionals and volunteers from all over the world, working on every aspect of the mission - including mentorship, teaching, and connecting people.

Diversity is one of our huge strengths, but it can also lead to communication issues and unhappiness. To that end, we have a few ground rules that we ask people to adhere to when they’re participating within this community and project. These rules apply equally to founders, mentors and those seeking help and guidance.
