Celebrate GIS Day!
Over 20 years ago, Jack Dangermond, the founder and president of ESRI, envisioned people collaborating and sharing how Geographic Information Systems (GIS) affect everyone. This led to the establishment of GIS Day, which was first observed in 1999. The explosion of geospatial technology since then has expanded that idea into a global event that shows how geography and the real-world applications of GIS are making a difference in society. It's a chance for organizations to share their accomplishments and inspire others to discover and use GIS.
This November, GC Geography will join hundreds of organizations worldwide in hosting gatherings that will serve to ignite the imagination of the future innovators who will further advance global progress using GIS.
