Wednesday 20th November marks this year’s International GIS Day – the world’s largest GIS event. To help celebrate, GIS People is hosting an event in Brisbane’s CBD.

The GIS Day celebrations will be held at the Riverside Centre in Brisbane. Running from 9am to 5pm, this FREE event will showcase the innovative and stunning uses of GIS technology in Queensland and further afield.

With interactive maps, Brisbane’s Virtual 3D model, gadgets such as unmanned drones and vehicle tracking systems, and technical experts to demonstrate how maps today are made, this event has something for everyone.

Members of the public, schools, local & state government, and private sector companies will all be in attendance to celebrate the fascinating and useful world of GIS. So come along, bring some friends, and see what’s happening, and how you too can utilise these technologies in your own world.

There will be competitions, free activities and giveaways throughout the day!

The event is also supporting Doctors Without Borders, so drop in and help this charity make a difference.
