Re: [Qgis-user] R: QGIS 2.4 Basic Tutorial
Hi All, Thanks for the guidance - I'll probably write more later with some questions about more details. Sasa - for now I have all the data files in the GitHub repository in a .zip file. If you go here: https://github.com/mtreg/QGIS-Tutorial/blob/master/QGIS-Tutorial/Treglia_Sample%20Data.zip - simply clicking view the full file should initiate a download. [or right-click on that and select save file as or something of the like]. Those data are not directly available from the website of the institution referenced - staff there provided me with the data to use for this tutorial/workshop though.

I'm sure there's a lot of duplicate work going on to develop materials for courses/trainings around the world, so it would be great to work on this in a collaborative context, where we might make datasets available, relevant to specific fields of study and regions.
