Greetings NEARC Community!
As we discuss data quite often on this list, I thought you might be interested in the following course I am teaching that runs from Jan to Mar 2022 for 10 weeks, online:

Course description: Geospatial data are the foundation upon which GIS and spatial analysis rests. As GIS has matured, the challenge has evolved from generating data to managing the enormous volume of data from government agencies, nonprofit
organizations, and industry, and increasingly, from ordinary citizens through citizen science and volunteered geographic information efforts. Key to working with this volume of data are essential issues such as privacy, copyright, public domain, cost recovery,
metadata standards, and data quality that GIS professionals must grapple with to be effective in the 21st Century. This class discusses and applies these issues and works with a rich array of data sources to enable effective decision-making in a Geographic
Information System. Prerequisite: GIS 4101 or similar GIS course and/or work experience.
