MapAction is a non-profit volunteer organization that provides GIS and mapping services to disaster areas. They’ve just published a free 118-page Field Guide To Humanitarian Mapping that’s a terrific introduction to both data acquisition using a GPS, and how to use Google Earth and the free open-source Windows GIS program MapWindow for mapping. I’d even say that it’s a far better choice for beginners than the recently-published GIS For Dummies (more on that soon, when I get the review of that volume done).
