Penn GIS Day 2024
We are excited to invite you to celebrate GIS Day 2024, a day dedicated to the fascinating world of Geographic Information Systems (GIS). Whether you're a GIS enthusiast, a seasoned professional, or just curious about the power of maps and spatial data, this event is for you!
This year's GIS Day event at Penn is also special as we commemorate the 20th anniversary of the Master of Urban Spatial Analytics (MUSA) program! This event will bring together students, faculty, alumni, and industry professionals to explore the latest advancements in GIS and urban and environmental spatial analytics.
GIS Day 2024 is hosted by the Research Data and Digital Scholarship, Penn Libraries, and the Master of Urban Spatial Analytics (MUSA), Weitzman School of Design. Our sponsor is The Penn Institute for Urban Research (PennIUR). PennIUR is dedicated to advancing cross-disciplinary urban-focused research, instruction, and civic engagement on issues relevant to cities around the world.
Let's come together to celebrate the impact of GIS on our world and inspire the next generation of geospatial thinkers. For inquiries, please contact LibraryGIS@pobox.upenn.edu.
