- Your laptop. We'll be in a computer lab, so this is not essential as students can use the lab machines. But installing and using the GIS software on your own laptop is a good accelerant to using and learning GIS.
- If you have a laptop: Download and install [GoogleEarthPro](https://www.google.com/earth/explore/products/desktop.html), and QGIS version 2.18 (both free) using the appropriate links below:
    - [Link to install QGIS for Windows, 64 bit machine](http://qgis.org/downloads/QGIS-OSGeo4W-2.18.25-1-Setup-x86_64.exe).
    - [Link to install QGIS for Windows, 32 bit machine.](http://qgis.org/downloads/QGIS-OSGeo4W-2.18.25-1-Setup-x86.exe)
    - [Link to install QGIS for a Mac.](http://qgis.org/downloads/macOS/QGIS-OSX-2.18.25-1.dmg) (this involves downloading and installing 4 files in the correct order).
- Create a login on the Worldmap site ([http://worldmap.harvard.edu](http://worldmap.harvard.edu/))
