This e-learning course  and course materials is the result of a
collaboration between GODAN Action partners, including the Food and
Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO <http://fao.org/> ), the
Global Forum on Agricultural Research (GFAR <http://www.gfar.net/> ),
Wageningen Environmental Research, AgroKnow, AidData <http://aiddata.org/> ,
the Institute of Development Studies (IDS <http://www.ids.ac.uk/> ), the
Land Portal <https://landportal.info/> , the Open Data Institute (ODI
<http://www.opendata.institute/> ) and the Technical Centre for Agriculture
and Rural Cooperation (CTA <http://www.cta.int/en/> ).  I want to thank all
GODAN colleagues who worked to develop  these resources and make it
available for everyone.

 

For your geodata visualisation research and education needs, there is lot of
work done by GeoForAll  colleagues that might be useful . One example is the
FOSS4G GeoAcademy Curriculum lectures and labs . These are maintained and
made available for download from the Spatial {Query} Lab on behalf of the
GeoAcademy <https://foss4geo.wordpress.com/> . The lectures focus on a
vendor-agnostic set of theories and principles.
