GIScience Webinar Series
Our new webinar series will offer fresh, global perspectives on geographic information science and geographic data science research. Upcoming webinars will be advertised on this page, our mailing list and twitter feed. Where agreed with the speaker, the recordings of our webinars are available on our youtube channel.
The original GIScience Webinar Series 2020/21 was initiated and managed by Andrea Ballatore, in collaboration with Justin Van Dijk and Stef De Sabbata, who now manage the current series. As of January 2023, the GIScience Webinar Series is organised in collaboration with GISRUK.
