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!

    Learn more about funding your scholarship, creative practice, or special projects at a unique convening –Strategies for Arts and Humanities Grantseeking: A CUNY Town Hall on Thursday, November 15 from 8:45am – 3:00pm in the Elebash Recital Hall at the CUNY Graduate Center. The CUNY arts and humanities community will come together to share stories of successful approaches and troubleshoot obstacles surrounding fundraising in the humanistic and creative fields, with a wide-ranging discussion for faculty of all career stages and graduate students. The Town Hall will feature your faculty peers and fundraising experts from across CUNY in panel conversation about their insights and best practices, with audience participation welcome.

    Two proven themes will focus the dialogue: 1) how partnerships of all shapes and sizes can be leveraged for grant success, and 2) how to seek out and cultivate funding decision-makers, with a deliberate plan for self-advocacy and relationship management.

    RSVP now!

    A light breakfast will begin the day, and complimentary lunch will also be provided to attendees. Please direct any questions to [email protected]. This convening is jointly organized by the CUNY Graduate Center Office of Research & Sponsored Programs, the CUNY Graduate Center Foundation, and Research Foundation CUNY.
