The Department of Geography hosted GIS Day, November 13, 2019. There were eight speakers, representing the UA Geography Department, the City of Huntsville, and the Washington Geologic Survey. Additionally, Daniel Coe, the speaker from the WGS, met with faculty to discuss future research projects, and with graduate students and the Intro to GIS course to speak about working with geospatial technologies outside of academia.
This year the GIS Day included two sessions of speakers, as well as a break for students and attendees to speak with and ask questions to the speakers.
