Workshop Overview

Geographic Information Systems (GIS) is a system of hardware and software used for the storage, retrieval, mapping, and analysis of geographic data. It provides a system for organizing spatial and related information into a single analytical framework, and is used in a variety of academic and industry settings for understanding spatial relationships.

This workshop will address the question “What is GIS?”, provide a variety of examples, and present the resources available in the Navari Family Center for Digital Scholarship.

Open to all graduate and undergraduate students, postdocs, faculty, and staff.
