Session Description: Geographic Information Science (GIScience) covers a broad spectrum of technical, theoretical, and applied domains. These domains can range from GIS, remote sensing, photogrammetry ...

As glaciers retreat due to a rise in global temperatures, one study shows that detailed 3D elevation models could drastically improve predictions about how they react to Earth's warming climate. The ...

Since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, global understanding of the virus’s reach and impact has grown proportionately with the use of mapping applications and online dashboards. Colour-coded or ...

The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) has a long history in the development of geospatial data, starting with the topographic mapping of the nation that began in the late nineteenth century and continued ...

Geographic Information Scientists (GIScientists) have an ongoing concern with the collection, analysis and display of high precision spatial data. The Department of Geography (GEOG) and the Department ...

Mapped information is most useful when it helps people answer practical questions, and geospatial science centers on exactly that. It brings together location-based data, a map-driven way of thinking, ...
