Who will shape the GIS of the Future?

AppGeo President, Rich Grady, and AppGeo’s Director of Software Architecture, Peter Girard, are presenting today on GIS and GIS programming at the Wentworth Institute of Technology, Department of Applied Mathematics.

“This is another example of how interest in GIS and the recognition of the importance of location-based analysis is spreading to all corners of higher education,” said Grady.  “We’re enthusiastic about sharing our knowledge and experiences with this audience, and interested to hear about their perspectives.  Mathematicians and contributors from many other disciplines will help to shape the GIS of the future.  And the nexus of location-based services, big data, the internet and social media, mobile devices, and evolving GIS platform technologies challenges all of us to stay in ‘learning mode’ as GIS professionals.”
