The 2018 GIS (geographic information systems) Day is Wednesday 14 November 2018.  GIS Day has been celebrated every year since 1999 as a way for organizations to showcase the things they are doing with mapping technologies, in government agencies, private companies, universities, schools, libraries, museums, and nonprofit organizations.  Why is Geographic Information Systems Day an important event every year, participated in by thousands of organizations around the world?  More importantly, why is GIS a fundamental part of the everyday decision making by those organizations?  Join Geographer Joseph Kerski as we examine how organizations are using digital mapping tools and spatial data to make their organizations more efficient and sustainable, and to serve their customers, clients, or patrons.
