This year, GIS Day is happening on <strong>Wednesday, November 18<\/strong>, and we hope you\u2019ll mark your calendars so you can participate. We\u2019re excited to bring you a different kind of GIS Day experience this year and to tell you a bit about what we have in the works.<\/p>\n<p>In the past, we\u2019ve hosted in-person GIS Day events, but we decided early in the discussions about returning to campus for autumn semester that this would not be a good idea in 2020. The first important change for this year is that <strong>we\u2019re going virtual<\/strong>!<\/p>\n<p>A virtual GIS Day provides us with a great opportunity to broaden participation in the program. Another important change this year is that our GIS Day 2020 program will be a collaboration between The Ohio State University, Case Western Reserve University, and the University of Cincinnati. Get ready for <strong>3C GIS Day<\/strong>!<\/p>\n<p>We\u2019re in the early stages of planning, but we look forward to an exciting program that will include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong><em>Lightning Talks<\/em><\/strong>\n<ul>\n<li>Learn about the application of geospatial technologies in a wide variety of disciplines from faculty, staff, students, and GIS professionals across Ohio\u2019s 3C Corridor (Cleveland, Columbus, and Cincinnati).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li><strong><em>StoryMaps Showcase<\/em><\/strong>\n<ul>\n<li>We\u2019re inviting any students, staff, and faculty affiliated with The Ohio State University, Case Western Reserve University, and the University of Cincinnati to create and submit <a href=\"https:\/\/storymaps.arcgis.com\/\">ArcGIS StoryMaps<\/a> to showcase their work on GIS Day and beyond. More details about the StoryMaps Showcase will be coming soon!<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li><strong><em>Professional Networking<\/em><\/strong>\n<ul>\n<li>We will provide a venue for GIS professionals, researchers, and students from across Ohio to connect with one another and discuss experiences, opportunities, and current topics of interest in the world of geospatial.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>In anticipation, there will be a StoryMaps workshop on October 5, 2020 from 10 am &#8211; 12 pm taught by the Research and Data Services team and hosted by the FEC.\u00a0 Stay tuned for more information about this workshop and 3C GIS Day in the coming weeks and months, and mark your calendars for a great event on November 18, 2020!\u00a0 The event is free and open to all.<\/p>\n<p>The 3C GIS Day planning committee includes Josh Sadvari and Katie Phillips (OSU), Ben Gorham (Case), and Amy Koshoffer (UC).
