If you have a great idea, have been using a new technique or new technology, or have an intriguing project or application of geographic information systems, please share your experience and knowledge with the rest of the spatial technologies community on GIS Day, Wednesday, Nov. 16, 2016, at Dimond Library.
The Geospatial Services Center is soliciting workshops, lightning talks and posters from geospatial professionals and students. You need not be affiliated with UNH to participate.
Proposals will be accepted for the following sessions:
Poster Session (2 – 5 p.m.) This is a good forum for showing off finished maps or works in progress. Student posters are strongly encouraged. Posters will be displayed in Dimond Library’s beautifully lit Addison Reading Room.
Oral Research Lightning Talks: Lightning talks are five-minute presentations with two minutes for questions. Professional work or presentations from a recent conference would be ideal in this session. Tips on how to give a great lightening talk: keep it simple, use mostly graphics, limit yourself to five main talking points and a maximum of five slides. This is a good place for showing off interactive material and finished projects.
Interested?
Submit your proposals to GIS.support@unh.edu. Include the following information in your email:
- Your name
- Your email address
- Department/affiliation (and, if undergrad/graduate/postdoc/faculty/staff/ community)
- Type (Lightning talk or poster)
- Title of talk or poster
- Description (in 50 words or fewer)
Deadline to submit: Friday, Nov. 4, at 5 p.m.
There are a limited number of presenter slots; there is no guarantee that a poster or presentation submission will be accepted.
