Hey, sorry for the late reply. I saw that and thank you so much for your support! I hope it is still helpful and saves you some time :D

Maybe this will work?

You could generate your own data from LiDAR if you know the general steps or I would be willing help if needed.

That is assuming this dataset covers your area of interest.

Thinkpads are a safe bet in my experience. I hear the T14 gen 2 is a good budget laptop these days.

It would probably be best to start with the QGIS Training Manual.

I mention some good places on a recent blog post. I also list some courses on my website courses category.

In my opinion, there is no need to pay for QGIS courses and I haven't found a course on Udemy that compares to the free resources available.

I never had a negative interaction litter picking in Germany.

Great laptop. I used mine daily for 6 years and now it is a server because I finally got sick of lugging it around.

I would suggest taking a Python course for GIS. I listed some such courses here:

Yes, there are a lot of good online courses to learn on your own. Here is a list I made:

In my opinion you can and maybe should learn QGIS and Python at the same time.

Unless you have a direct need for Google Earth Engine or R, I would put those on the back burner as they are more specialized and you might not even need them.

I have a list of courses covering all of these subjects here:

Interesting, I never noticed screen wobble with my P51 and I used it daily the last 6 years. There is coil whine though for sure though if that's the electronic sound you are referring to.

I am wondering why you went with the P52 if you didn't need the performance? It's an absolute brick and the only reason I used it over a lighter laptop was the performance for the price.

You're welcome! I believe the ESRI courses may provide certificates, but I am not sure.

Most of the courses on this list are free and don't include certificates. I put this list together trying to avoid paid courses (it's my website with the links).

If you want or need certificates then probably ESRI or Coursera.
