This year’s format for the NYS GeoSpatial Summit is a blended in-person and virtual watch party. Our section is planning to convene at the Dnipro Ukrainian Cultural Center on September 29th from 2 pm to 7 pm and will include dinner for members who are current with their dues ($20 for non-members) and a cash bar.

NYSGIS asked if we could assemble a 5 minute slideshow showcasing what we are working on. Please send us a screenshot of one of your notable projects with brief descriptions that we could add to the presentation.
