ABOUT ILGISA...
Geographic Information Systems (GIS) is a technology that is set apart from other information technologies by the need to identify 'where' or location. Our members have diverse interests, but share similar geospatial challenges. ILGISA brings together the GIS community of the State of Illinois through biannual conferences and the publication of Illinois GIS Notes.

Spring Conference Update
THEME/CONTENT: This spring we want you to Visualize Your Geography. Technology moves at a rapid pace, where with limited resources we have to try to master one technology before it becomes obsolete. Not only is cadastral, transportation, environmental and imagery data served through maps, desktop applications and internet services, but can also be ported to a smart phone or tablet. Throughout the conference we hope to share various ways to communicate geospatial data in order to Visualize your Geography. With your help, we hope to discuss the following topics: Translating the Message with GIS, Collaborating Legacy Data within your GIS, Managing your Enterprise GIS, Planning with GIS, Visualizing Hazards and Disasters, GIS in the Field, GIS for Public Consumption and Emerging Geospatial Technologies.
