[edit] Using your own laptop or PC

We prefer using Free and Open Source Software because this enables you to install software on your own computer without paying for costly licenses, to learn and continue your work at home. In this course we use the Long Term Release LTR Version QGIS 3.28.4 Firenze. QGIS is available on Windows, macOS, Linux and Android We recommend to use the Standalone Version for this tutorial.

  • Do you have already a QGIS version installed? Please first deinstall all previous QGIS versions to avoid confusions by using different QGIS versions side by side.
