14. Module: Forestry Application
In modules 1 through 13, you have already learned quite a lot about QGIS and how to work with it. If you are interested in learning about some basic forestry applications of GIS, following this module will give you the ability to apply what you have learned and will show you some new useful tools.
The development of this module has been sponsored by the European Union.
