This flagship recurring workshop series introduces GIS and spatial data science to public-health professionals, researchers, and students, using open-source tools and reproducible workflows. No prior GIS experience is assumed. Approach Delivered as a hands-on Quarto-based course built entirely in R, the curriculum moves from foundational concepts of spatial data science to applied analysis.
