CSI’s 13th Annual GIS Day | November 14, 2018
Join us on the mappiest day of the year!
You are cordially invited to join us on November 14, 2018 for CSI’s 13th Annual Geographic Information Systems (GIS) Conference, in celebration of International Geography Awareness Week. GIS Day will include key insights by CSI faculty, government agencies, and private sector representatives. Poster sessions and interactive workshops to follow.
A geographic information system (GIS) is a framework for gathering, managing and analyzing data. Rooted in the science of geography, GIS integrates many types of data. It analyzes spatial location and organizes layers of information into visualization using maps and 3D scenes. With this unique capability, GIS reveals deeper insights into data, such as patterns, relationships, and situations – helping users make smarter decisions.
Instructors and/or chaperones please register your entire group under your organization name and select the appropriate amount of tickets for students that will be attending.
