SUMMARY:Laser Cutting Ocean Floor Contour Maps
DESCRIPTION:Note: This workshop will be held in person\n\nAbout This 
 Workshop\n\nBathymetry is the study and visualization of the ‘beds’ or 
 ‘floors’ of bodies of water\, and helps us create ocean floor contour 
 maps. A bathymetric map of Victoria Harbour would show contours of the 
 ocean floor and relative water depth. It can be thought of as underwater 
 topography. Contour maps are a way of displaying elevation change in a 2D 
 format. Areas of equal elevation are connected by concentric lines at set 
 intervals. The example below shows 500 metre elevation increases. In 
 addition to being useful for navigation\, planning\, and visualization\, 
 contour maps can also be quite beautiful and make a good subject for 
 artistic mapping.\n\n\n\nQGIS is a geographic information system software 
 that is free and open-source. It supports viewing\, editing\, printing\, 
 and analysis of geospatial data in a range of data formats. Inkscape is a 
 free and open source design tool for making and editing vector graphics. 
 Inkscape uses the standardized SVG file format as its main format\, which 
 is supported by many other applications including web browsers.\n\nPlease 
 note that it is recommended that you complete the Intro to Design with 
 Laser Cutting workshop and at least one of the Intro to QGIS workshops 
 before starting this tutorial.\n\n(Note: If you are a staff member at UVic 
 and are wanting to install software on a work computer\, you may require 
 system admin permission to do so.)
