The eighth Annual University of Washington GIS Symposium will be held on Thursday, May 30th in the Allen Library Research Commons. The Symposium is presented with co-sponsorship from the UW Center for Studies in Demography and Ecology<https://csde.washington.edu/>.

The GIS Symposium highlights and celebrates the transformational role of Geographic Information Systems (GIS), remote sensing, and data visualization technologies at the UW and beyond. The event will feature short talks from the UW GIS community followed by a keynote presentation on our new Planet.com<https://guides.lib.uw.edu/research/gis/planet?_gl=1*nytc7t*_ga*MTMxNjIzNzMyNS4xNzAyNTkzMzMx*_ga_63X2ZQHK8P*MTcxMzk3ODQ4NS4xNDAuMS4xNzEzOTc5Njk1LjAuMC4w> resource.
Give a Presentation!
This event invites students of all levels and experiences to share their unique mapping projects to help inspire and educate our UW community about the many different ways this technology can be used to highlight research work and impact. SUBMIT A PROPOSAL TO PRESENT A TALK HERE.<https://washington.libwizard.com/id/e915d806c537a89c07fbb19dbfb0a10f?_gl=1*1av7dr*_ga*MTkwNzQwODczLjE2MTExNzQzMDU.*_ga_63X2ZQHK8P*MTcxNDk1Mjc5Ni4xNC4wLjE3MTQ5NTI4MDQuMC4wLjA.>
Each presenter will give a very brief "lighting talk" (around 5 minutes) explaining and sharing their mapping work.
