If it's November, it's GIS Day

This month we are celebrating GIS Day on November 17. Our event is scheduled to be featured on the GIS Day website.

During our meeting, Melissa Albino-Hegeman, who is the Marine Fisheries Data Manager at the NYS Department of Environmental Conservation's Division of Marine Resources, will share her experience in designing GIS tools. Her presentation will be followed by a Q&A session. Connection details will be shared on the day of the event.

GIS Day 2021 - Celebration at Bedford Falls

Image
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 . This event is a chance for new potential members of our chapters to get to know us better and forge new collaborations in the field of conservation GIS. 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.
