Society for Conservation GIS
Welcome to the Central -Western Massachusetts Chapter of the Society of Conservation GIS, serving all of New England.
Our aim is to bring together the regional community of conservation GIS professionals. We welcome anyone interested in the conservation of Natural Resources and cultural heritage and anyone interested in knowing how Geographic Information Science and Remote Sensing can help to solve conservation problems.
MA-SCGIS is an affiliated chapter of the Society for Conservation GIS. The Society for Conservation GIS (SCGIS) assists conservationists worldwide in using Geographic Information Systems (GIS) through communication, networking, scholarships, and training. Membership is open to anyone looking to engage in a GIS community to help them achieve their personal or organizational conservation goals.
