See new and existing technologies at the annual GIS Fair on Nov. 1
The Geographic Information System (GIS) group will host the 16th Annual Pima County GIS Fair on Friday, Nov. 1, at the County-City Public Works Building, in the basement Conference Room C. From 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. Government staff, businesses, and the general public can hear presentations and try out the latest GIS tools.
In addition to presentations, participants can visit a dozen exhibitors. A grand prize drawing, with a prize provided by CADsoft Consulting, will take place at the end of the GIS Fair. In addition, downtown businesses will provide gifts to be distributed throughout the day.
If you don’t know much about Geographic Information Systems, you can see a brief overview of this service at What is GIS? One of the most popular applications of Pima County’s GIS is the interactive MapGuide Maps and our next generation web mapping system PimaMaps.
