This repository is a living resource that introduces knowledge and practical skills needed to develop geospatial visualizations for HIV epidemic control. The repository sections include code, data, issues, and project management, as well as a wiki that organizes a wide array of resources for the PEPFAR GIS Community of Practice.
This page organizes code, tools, and tutorials centered on technical skills. Below are tutorials on QGIS, a widely used GIS software. The tutorials found within this repository are meant to give users only the most basic geographic concepts. The purpose is to quickly facilitate the ability to use GIS in support of PEPFAR.
Users may contact ICPI for more information on anything contained withing this repository.
