Excellent course for me as haven't worked with GIS for nearly 20 years. It is not a "How To" course - if you want to learn how to use QGIS go to Youtube, but if you want to understand the basics of geographical data, how it is used, created, transformed and analysed then this is exactly the course for you.

it will help me for my career development thanks coursera

Amazing course. Waiting for Part 2 in English

The content of the course is really good, I appreciate the effort of the teachers, however, the platform that marks the tests needs to be improved. Generally speaking, I have learned a lot with this course, albeit without a basic understanding of GIS.

I really liked the course, topics, and practices, based on the fact that I didn't know anything about databases or GIS. As a negative, I can point out that I did not get any response from the instructors on the various problems related to syntax and understanding of the statements in the questions to be solved.

The content and delivery is really good. I learned a lot and the content is very relevant to the subject. I do feel that the translation of the lectures can be improved as well as the marking system, feedback and variation of versions of answers for the quizzes and assignments.

This course is really good for learning QGIS and SQL queries for GIS. Being a civil engineer, I hope I can use it frequently in my job. The course content is good but the quizzes and assignments are really really time-consuming due to their format of evaluation. Since the course is translated to English, there are unusual pauses in sentences and the constant flow of speaking makes monotonous and hard to grasp the sense of the sentences. So. you must be attentive all the time. This course is good if you want to know something about GIS but not for certification. My suggestion is: just skip the quizzes and try to grab the knowledge.

Take this course only if you want to learn QGIS and only QGIS badly. Though the lectures are informative, the quizzes will surely drive you mad. The questions are made as vague as possible and the checking system checks only the text. No matter you query is working or not. If there is even a single space missing as in the actual fed answer, the system will mark it wrong. The discussion forum is small and sometimes useful. Not many people are available there.

Second exercise files (from Week 1!) are corrupt. After installing second version, files remained corrupt. And for the first exercise, no explanations are included for any of the questions or problems occurring.

I didnt like the course. Boring content and software explanations are in french. Maybe the french version of the course if worth but not this one. Very disappointed.
