Description
Edina 'Digimap' as a mapping subscription is widely used across several Schools and programmes within the University. It is not only used to support UG/PG teaching but is also used to support UK based research projects. It has been used to both support and enable open/applicant day and outreach activities. 'Digimap' is an intuitive and accessible software, which is not only provided across the HE sectors but is also widely used by many secondary and tertiary education platforms. This makes it a valuable choice for foundation stage and undergraduate students who have already had some experience of using it and are keen to improve or advance their skills with this software. 'Digimap' has the added capability of being compatible with our GIS software enabling downloads of files into these and other software packages
