Mergin Maps

Announcing the first ever book about Mergin Maps from Locate Press

We have just reached another milestone as the new Mergin Maps book was launched at the QGIS User Conference 2024 in Bratislava. It is called Collecting Field Data with QGIS and Mergin Maps and it is written by Kurt Menke and Alexandra Bucha Rášová, published by Locate Press. All of us at Mergin Maps want to thank Kurt and Alexandra for their hard work in putting the book together as it makes an excellent resource for anyone wishing to use QGIS and Mergin Maps.

One book that covers it all

Having more than 100k registered users, Mergin Maps is an important tool for the QGIS ecosystem, hardly replaceable for QGIS field data collectors. We want Mergin Maps and QGIS to be accessible for everyone, even if they are not a GIS expert. This new  book is a great way for users of all experience levels to get up to speed with step-by-step instructions and detailed illustrations on how to use all of the tools in Mergin Maps.

The book is 137 pages and covers everything you need to know to work with Mergin Maps, whether you are new to the app or familiar with it. It includes basic steps of setting up a project, configuring layers and conducting first field survey, but also advanced workflows like project configuration and best practices for collaboration. It is an ultimate guide to help you manage your projects like a pro!

How can you buy it

The book was published by Locate Press, you can buy it on their website as a PDF or paperbacks can be ordered from Amazon and Ingram. If you want any help with the book or the content, feel free to drop us a question through our contact channels.

And speaking of milestones, what is the next big one? Having a full scale Mergin Maps conference with our partners and you - our users. Let's see what future can bring us.
