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!

Python Users\’ Group (PUG) Spring Calendar

  • Hello all,

    We are pleased to announce the Spring calendar for the Python Users\’ Group (PUG for short).

    The Python Users\’ Group (PUG for short) is an open and informal collaborative space for experimentation and exploration with the Python programming language, where we learn, work, chat, snack and have the occasional beer. It is an opportunity for those interested in Python to work together and find support.

    PUG is open to people of all skill levels, disciplines, and backgrounds. Complete beginners are more than welcome here. We are working on introductory exercises for Python. For more information, join us on our commons group, where we share the materials needed for the exercises, answer each other\’s questions and talk about any Python related stuff.

    We will be meeting on Fridays at 3:30pm (please notice the small change of time from Fall), at the Digital Scholarship Lab (room 7414). The first meeting of the Spring is this upcoming Friday, February 7th.

    If you plan to participate, make sure to put the dates below in your calendar, and join the PUG commons. Future announcements and other discussions will happen there so we don\’t spam people\’s e-mails.
