CyberGIS enables geospatial scholars to ask bigger questions - it removes the barriers of handing ever larger datasets, running more complex simulations, and engaging colleagues and stakeholders worldwide. As GIS pra ctice becomes more cyber-enabled every day, universities face challenges in keeping up with rapidly evolving technology while reinforcing the core of spatial science. In this webinar, we will discuss the role of training work shops in building cyberGIS literacy, the potential of distributed efforts i n creating open educational materials like the CyberGIS Fellows program, an d how to keep students engaged through hybridized approaches to training an d education.
Presenter: Johnathan Rush is the Education, Outreach, and Training Coordinator at the CyberGIS Center for Advanced Dig ital and Spatial Studies at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. At the Center, he organizes workshops to transfer cutting-edge cyberGIS pr actices to diverse communities of scholars, and manages the CyberGIS Helpde sk consulting service. He has been working with GIS in research and the pub lic sector for over ten years, and is currently a PhD candidate in geograph y.
