This hands-on workshop introduces participants to a complete mobile GIS workflow using QField and QGIS, based on a real-world accessibility mapping exercise.

Participants will collaboratively survey the conference venue to identify and document accessibility barriers such as entrances, stairs, ramps, signage, and facilities. Working in small teams, they will collect structured geospatial data directly on-site using QField, including attributes, comments, and photos.

The collected data is synchronized into a shared QGIS project, where results are reviewed, analyzed, and discussed live. This creates a highly interactive learning experience in which participants not only observe but actively contribute to a meaningful dataset.

The workshop demonstrates how mobile GIS can be applied efficiently in spatial planning and accessibility analysis. It covers the full workflow from project setup and field data collection to synchronization and evaluation in QGIS.

Designed for beginners to professional users, the session highlights the power of open-source tools in a practical and engaging context, turning the venue itself into a live GIS learning environment.
