California Geographic Information Association (CGIA) is hosting their fourth annual CGIA GeoSummit at UC Merced, Friday March 13, 2015.

This event brings together state and regional GIS experts, educators, graduate students, and faculty using GIS in their research, in addition to community members with an interest in GIS.  The event this year features speakers from all walks of GIS to share their work, the latest in GIS technology, student presentations, and a map gallery.  For more info, visit their website.

Come out with your local SoCal URISA members for a night of pizza and pitchers!

Please join SoCal URISA, for a night of networking, GIS talk and fun. Students and those seeking a career are encouraged to come out, bring your questions, current projects, resumes and let the folks in the community give you guidance.

Bring a co-worker or fellow student, meet your Southern California URISA chapter and let’s talk about all GIS in our community!

Pizzas and pitchers of beer or non-alcoholic drinks will be served.
