The UBC Library provides access to GIS resources, including data, software, online courses and support.

We can assist you with locating and acquiring geospatial data; subsetting data and converting it into different formats; recommending GIS and mapping tools, and learning more about using GIS software.

We can also assist faculty and instructors by creating and facilitating workshops and other learning materials on finding geospatial data for your students.
