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!

GIS Day @ the GC: Sharing applications of GIS

  • Posted by Javier Otero Peña on November 11, 2020 at 5:34 pm

    November 18  from 5pm-630pm

    Virtual on Zoom

    Join us to share your GIS/Mapping projects! The Graduate Center’s GIS Day will be an opportunity to hear how current CUNY students and faculty are applying GIS and mapping to explore their research questions. The first hour will be short presentations. The next half hour will be an open discussion to help students and faculty brainstorm how they can apply GIS in their research. This will be a casual environment, so please feel free to share your research in any stage that it’s in, and if you aren’t currently using GIS come and get inspired!

    If you would like to present your research, sign up here.

    Emojis and head nods will be provided. 

    This event is hosted by the CUNY Academic Commons GIS/Mapping Working Group. http://cuny.is/gis
