Within the scope of the Istanbul Sustainable
Urban Mobility Plan (SUMP) Phase II- Implementation Plan Project, which is co-financed
with the EU under the Sectoral Operational Programme for Transport (USOP), the second Capacity
Development Training on Geographic Information Systems (GIS) in S-sustainable urban
mobility was organized on 25 February 2025. This training, by Yiğit Can Yavuz
for Istanbul Metropolitan Municipality employees, aimed to enhance the advanced
and effective use of geographic information systems (GIS) and related software.
The training program started with an introduction
to advanced editing tools and 3D maps and graphical visualizations.
Participants then gained both theoretical and practical knowledge on topics
such as selection, matching, and linking tools, data transfers, and domain
creation. The afternoon sessions focused on network analysis, topology control,
model-building tools, and service area analysis. The training concluded with
case studies and interactive question-and-answer sessions.
