GIS / Mapping Working Group

The Geographic Information Systems (GIS) / Mapping working group is a network of CUNY students, faculty and staff who are interested in sharing methods and techniques, and finding support from others about ways GIS can be used to further research and teaching.

The GIS/Mapping working group is part of a GC Digital Initiatives program designed to create collaborative communities of Digital Fellows, CUNY-wide graduate students, staff, and faculty to meet regularly and share their areas of interest. The working groups provide a sustained, supportive environment to learn new skills, share familiar skills, and collaborate with both the Digital Fellows and the CUNY digital community.

If you are using Geographic Information Systems or other mapping technologies in your teaching and/or research, or if you are interested in mapping your data, or using GIS technology to analyze/visualize your data, we invite you to join the GIS/Mapping working group.

Peruse our mapping resource bank here: https://commons.gc.cuny.edu/groups/gis-working-group/docs/gis-mapping-resources/

For the Spring 2024 semester, the GIS/Mapping working group will meet in the Digital Scholarship Lab, Room 7414, every other Tuesday from 2-4 p.m. Check out our event calendar for the specific meeting dates. Please stop by!

May 23-24, 2018: Carto Locations Summit in NYC

  • Posted by Javier Otero Peña on April 3, 2018 at 5:06 pm

    Hello all, thought this could be of interest to you.

    Carto is launching a 2-day summit called Locations.

    “CARTO Locations is the world’s biggest Location Intelligence Summit. Hundreds of leaders, innovators, practitioners, and thought leaders from the global geospatial community will come together to discuss how location data is disrupting business, governments, and society.”

    There’s an early bird 40% discount for registration until April 27. Not sure if they offer student pricing, but could be worth asking.

    More information (agenda, speakers, etc.) on their website (here).

    Hi Javier! Thank you for the heads up. Here’s what Carto said about student discounts: [image1.jpeg]

    Not sure whether this is stackable with the 40% off promo (I assume not?)

    A presto,
    Stefano
