In this exercise, you will learn how to install QGIS for Windows and verify the plugins for extending the functionality of the software. The instructions can vary based on your operating system.
Plugins are models that extend the functionality of software. In QGIS, these can be accessed using the Plugins Manager. The Table Manager is a plugin frequently used to manage attribute data; it is useful to load this before you start using the software.
Congratulations: your software is ready for use!
