[Geospatial] UC GIS Week Nov 17-19 - registration now open!

[Janet Reyes]

Hello everyone,

This year, rather than holding GIS Day events at UCR in November, we are participating in the first-ever UC GIS Week! The nine hours of virtual programming, spread over three days, will include several UCR researchers in addition to researchers and alumni from other UC campuses.

Topics range from the natural and computer sciences to history to issues such as wildfire response, homelessness, hate crimes and COVID. Additionally, career panelists will discuss the GIS job market.

Registration is free!

Please share the following information with your students, colleagues and friends. Thanks in advance for anything you can do to help spread the word!
