Have you ever done a map using a GIS (Geo-Information System) framework?
And if so, what would you tell someone who is contemplating such a thing with no prior practical experience of such systems?

Whole bunch cause it’s my job.
Maps are super great and wonderful in all sorts of senses. ArcPro is sort of the gold standard, but really it’s a monopoly. Esri, the company behind Arc, has software you can trial for free to check some things out and try it. Esri’s website also has a TON of courses you can follow along with to understand the basics and then even more complex things.
That being said QGIS is FOSS and as far as I understand, very similarly capable as any Arc tool. I haven’t done so myself, but it might very well be possible to have Q and follow along with the Esri tutorials.
Yeah, if I were to do this, I would use QGIS.
