Mapping and Geographic Information System (GIS) Innovation Club

Club Lead: Dr Jonny Huck

The Mapping and GIS innovation club aims to meet monthly to allow staff and researchers to meet and network with people who have similar technology / research interests.

The purpose of Mapping and GIS club activity is to:

  • Present their research and discuss sticking points that the community may be able to help them with
  • Find new collaboration partners from across the University
  • Ask questions within the community so that members can share experience/ideas to save time
  • Share ideas on funding calls that are relevant to the community
  • Share equipment (if free) and resources
  • Discuss technology/methodology advances and provide advice on what to/not to buy
  • Advertise talks that may be of interest to the community & widen participation across campus.

If you are interested in this community, you may also be interested in Digital Futures’ Cities and Environment theme, which takes a broad multidisciplinary approach to addressing the challenges of digital technologies’ potential to transform cities, and the lives of those who live and work in them, including through sensor networks, data analytics and agile control systems, by helping us better understand, plan and manage them. Digital Futures is the University’s interdisciplinary network operating across the whole range of the University’s digital research.
