QGreenland: A Greenland-focused GIS Tool for community discussion and decision-making

Geospatial data can be challenging to work with for a variety of reasons. Barriers include time consuming data identification and difficult file formats, and hesitancy to use Geographic Information System (GIS) software. The October 2024 meeting of the Risk Management & Hazard Mitigation Collaboration Team focused on QGreenland. QGreenland, an NSF funded project, is working to remove these barriers. QGreenland serves the research community via a free package of integrated Greenland-focused data that covers many disciplines. QGreenland serves the education community via curriculum activities and educator-specific programs. All potential and current users also benefit from extensive how-tos, tutorials, and other support material to make QGreenland welcoming even to those who have never before used GIS software.  Alyse Thurber (CIRES) shared lessons learned, remaining challenges for QGreenland and similar applications, and opportunities for future improvement.
