The Geographic Information Systems (GIS) Community of Practice provides a venue for the campus community to share information, experiences, and ideas around GIS topics. We meet periodically for a presentation and discussion of broad general interest, and to provide a face-to-face forum for general knowledge sharing and networking with ones' GIS peers within the broader U-M community.
A wide variety of software and technology are used around the University to work with spatial data, such as ArcGIS, QGIS, R, Google, Tableau, MapInfo, MapIT, iGIS, Qualtrics, ENVI, ERDAS, Imagine, eCognition, lastools, Agisoft, Matlab, Microsoft Office, Adobe CC, and many more...
All are welcome in our GIS Community of Practice!
