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!

Baruch College GIS Lab Remote Workshops Fall 2020

  • Posted by Frank Donnelly on September 21, 2020 at 8:56 am

    The GIS Lab at the Baruch College library is offering two remote workshops via Zoom on Fridays during the Fall 2020 semester: a self-directed Intro to GIS workshop using QGIS and an introductory presentation and demonstration on US census data.

    Advance registration is required, and is limited to current: Baruch College undergraduates (including Macaulay Honors affiliates), CUNY graduate students, and CUNY faculty and staff. Participants must be completely comfortable with using Zoom (tech support cannot be provided by the instructor). Seats are limited to insure that there’s a small, workable group.

    Frank Donnelly is the Geospatial Data Librarian at Baruch and is the instructor for these series.

    Dates:

    QGIS workshop: Friday Oct 16 AND Oct 23: 10am-11:30am

    Census workshop: Friday Oct 2 OR Friday Nov 20: 10am-11:30am
