 Audience 
 This fast paced, hands-on workshop teaches the fundamentals of how to use a Geographic Information System (GIS) in a way that is particularly relevant to social service providers, planners and researchers. Participants will learn three core components of  GIS: thematic mapping, geocoding (address mapping) and spatial querying. 
 
 Mapping techniques transferable to all other communities. Exercises are designed for beginners. Intermediate Excel skills required. 
 
 Materials 
 Comprehensive workbook (75 pages), which includes the presentation, exercises and reference worksheets, ArcGIS (ArcView 9.1) software 30-day trial CD set, access to new 2004 Tiger/Line geography files (already converted to shapefiles) which include stree ts, zip codes, school districts, voting districts, census tracts and many other useful geographies.
