GEOL-QMAPS (QGIS-based solution for digital geological mapping)

The GEOL-QMAPS digital geological mapping solution comprises a QGIS field data entry template, designed as an open-source, collaborative tool with user-driven updates. It integrates with a custom QGIS plugin that facilitates the import of existing field data, fieldwork preparation, and field database management (available at https://github.com/swaxi/WAXI_QF). Although developed within the framework of stage 4 of the West African eXploration Initiative project (https://waxi4.org/), this template and plugin are not region-specific and can be adapted to any mapping guidelines. The downloadable archive includes: - a folder containing the customised QGIS mapping project template and related files for field data collection, - a .docx log file providing updates for the various releases of the QGIS template project, - a .txt file with a link to the UserGuide (https://github.com/swaxi/GEOL-QMAPS/blob/main/README.md).
