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!

Reminder: CUNY DHI Lightning Talks on Friday 11/19 at 4:30pm

    Hello all,

    GC Digital Initiatives is excited to host the 7th annual Digital Humanities Initiative (DHI) Lightning Talks on November 19, 2021 from 4:30 – 6:00 PM. Each year the event brings together digital humanities projects and scholars across the CUNY system, building a sense of community and awareness about the work taking place within our own network. Sign up here to attend, if you haven’t already!

    If you would like to share your project at the event, and you haven’t yet registered, we will create space for you! Participation is greatly encouraged! Send a message to Lisa Rhody at  [email protected] if you would like to present a lightning talk!

    Lightning Talks, brief 3-minute and 3-slide presentations, create opportunities for students, faculty, and others to present their digital projects, research, and initiatives and to receive feedback. It’s a wonderful way to get the word out about what you do to a wider CUNY community, and to hear about what your colleagues are doing across the CUNY campuses. Following presentations, attendees will have an opportunity to socialize and ask questions to presenters in breakout groups.
