The usage of R in GIS is growing because of its enhanced capabilities for statistics, data visualization, and spatial analytics. In this workshop, you will learn some basics of working with geospatial data and producing maps in R. Topics will include using `sf` and `terra` to work with vector and raster data, respectively. You will practice visualizing geospatial data using base plotting functions, `ggplot2`, and `leaflet`.

**Knowledge Prerequisites**: Though not required, it would be beneficial to know some basics of using `dplyr` and `ggplot2`.
<ahref="http://brittanysbarker.org">Brittany Barker</a> is an Assistant Professor (Senior Research) at the Oregon IPM Center at Oregon State University. She uses R to develop ecological models that can provide decision-support for managing and monitoring pests, their crop hosts, and their natural enemies. Over the past five years, she has transitioned from ArcGIS to R for nearly all GIS and mapping operations. She loves nature, running, native plants, wildlife, and sci-fi and horror books.

Learn the basics of using GitHub for improved R reproducibility, portability, defensibility, and more with a brief introduction to GitHub version control with the GitHub Flow, integrating GitHub with your R development environment and projects, and thoughtful individual and collaboration best practices.
Skyler started his career in the United States Marine Corps where he specialized in geospatial intelligence (GEOINT), terrain analysis, and geodetic surveying. After his service in the military, he studied environmental science, GIS, statistics, and data science. Skyler's skills continue to take him across disciplines where his knowledge and experience are broadly applicable. He believes leadership should happen at all levels, be transparent, foster innovation, and support the equitable advancement of those around you.
