Stuck on a geoprocessing step, data source, or map design detail? Book a one-on-one GIS consultation with a GMDC specialist. Sessions are free for all TMU students, faculty, and staff. Appointments are offered in 30- or 60-minute blocks, either in person at the GMDC lab or remotely via Zoom.
Typical topics include finding authoritative data, joining census tables, troubleshooting ArcGIS or QGIS workflows, and refining cartographic layouts. Submit the online request form with a short description of your question and preferred meeting format. We aim to confirm within two business days.
Request a Workshop
Instructors and students can integrate spatial skills directly into their courses by scheduling a custom GIS workshop. We tailor sessions from 30-minute demos to one hour hands on demos to match your course objectives, whether that’s introducing ArcGIS Pro, teaching spatial join concepts, or guiding students through StoryMaps. Workshops can be held in the GMDC Labs or via zoom. Please complete the workshop request form at least one week in advance, noting class size, software needs, and desired learning outcomes. A GIS specialist will follow up to finalize content and logistics.
