GIS Day 2024
What is GIS Day?
GIS Day provides an open forum for users of geographic information system (GIS) technology to demonstrate real-world applications that are making a difference in Santa Clara County. This is an opportunity to learn, share and connect with the public about what the County is accomplishing with GIS technology and to understand how GIS can be used, illustrated and the value of the unlimited capabilities.
GIS Day is a free Hybrid event, located at 110 W Tasman Dr. We invite you to join us to learn how the County, government agencies, private companies, educational institutions and non-profit organizations use GIS in emergency response, social services and administration to make life better in Santa Clara County.
