SUMMARY:Introduction to Git and GitHub: Part 2
DESCRIPTION:Learn the basics of using Git and GitHub for version control and collaboration. Git is widely used version control software that tracks changes to a group of files\, referred to as a repository. GitHub is a popular website for hosting and sharing Git repositories\, making it easier to collaborate and share your work. Together\, Git and GitHub provide a platform that is increasingly used for collaboration in research and academic environments. In this beginner workshop participants will learn key concepts\, create their own Git repository\, and publish to GitHub. No previous experience with Git is required. Familiarity with the command line interface will be helpful but is not necessary. This is part 2 of a two-part introductory workshop. \n\n\n\nPre-workshop setup \n\n\n\nPlease complete the pre-workshop setup to install the Bash shell and Git. If you don’t already have one\, create a free GitHub account before the workshop.  \n\n\n\nThis workshop is part of the Core Skills series.  \n\n\n\nPresenter(s): Kendra Oudyk

SUMMARY:La création de cartes interactives avec uMap
DESCRIPTION:24 March 2026 \n\n\n\nL’application en ligne uMap permet de créer et de diffuser des cartes géographiques personnalisées\, interactives et collaboratives. uMap est utile pour les chercheurs et étudiants universitaires\, car l’application permet de présenter des données sur une carte en ligne et de collaborer à plusieurs personnes sur une même carte\, offrant ainsi une plateforme conviviale pour la visualisation et la communication efficace des informations géospatiales. \n\n\n\nLa première partie de l’atelier propose un tour d’horizon des principales fonctionnalités de uMap et des étapes nécessaires pour vous lancer dans la création de votre première carte géographique interactive. Dans la deuxième partie de l’atelier\, notre équipe sera là pour vous aider à créer votre première carte en ligne adaptée selon vos champs d’intérêts et besoins. \n\n\n\n[Cette formation aura lieu au Laboratoire de données et humanités numériques de la bibliothèque centrale\, local A-M203] \n\n\n\nAtelier présenté et animé par Katerine Grandmont \n\n\n\nKaterine Grandmont occupe le poste de technicienne en cartographie à la Cartothèque de l’UQAM. Elle détient une maitrise en géographie et a travaillé de nombreuses années dans le domaine de la recherche nordique\, notamment à la cartographie des risques en milieux de pergélisol. Elle offre du soutien à la communauté universitaire pour l’utilisation d’outils et logiciels de cartographie et d’analyse spatiale et l’utilisation des données géospatiales.
