PRODUÇÃO DE TUTORIAIS: APLICAÇÃO DO QGIS POR MEIO DE VÍDEOS NAS REDES SOCIAIS

Abstract

This Course Completion Work, in the Applied Pedagogical Material modality, aims to present the use of the free software Quantum GIS - QGIS as a solution tool for the production of thematic maps, contributing to the visualization of the environmental reality through spatial analysis. In this way, tutorials were developed and made available on the social networks YouTube and Facebook, which aims to reach a diverse audience, with emphasis on students and professionals in the areas of Geography and the like. The videos ranged from the installation of QGIS 3.40.8 LTR, activation of essential complements such as HCMGIS, to the elaboration of a thematic map of the Biomes of Mato Grosso do Sul, using official data via GeoServiço Siriema/IMASUL. The methodology adopted was exclusively with the use of free software for recording and editing, such as OBS Studio and Shotcut, ensuring accessibility and low cost. The audiovisual productions were organized in a playlist and the interpretation of the engagement was carried out seven days after posting. Despite revealing a modest reach, positive feedback and indications of growing interest stand out. The results indicated that the use of QGIS as a geotechnology tool, combined with accessible tutorial videos, contributes to the democratization of technical knowledge and to the autonomy of users in the production of thematic maps that promote practical, accessible and low-cost learning.
