Coding in Conservation GIS

The theme of our March meeting is CODING IN GIS. Are you a GIS developer or are you planning to become one? What are the scripting languages that are most useful in a GIS career? Are you more interested in GIS development or in GIS analysis? Are they necessarily divergent? How is coding helpful in conservation projects? Please feel free to share links to your favorite-tools-of-the-trade and online learning platform courses here in the comments.

GIS Day 2021 - Celebration at Bedford Falls

We are planning an in-person networking event at our former meeting place, Bedford Falls. This event is registered on gisday.com, so we will be giving away five free ESRI licenses for personal use. The rules for the raffle are mentioned in the Meetup event. We greatly enjoyed our October hike in Brooklyn Botanic Garden  and we planned more ambitious hikes for next year. We are also considering transferring our event announcements to Eventbrite .

Please note that you will need to RSVP on Meetup one week ahead for reserved seating, there is a ten person maximum, and proof of vaccination is required.
