SUMMARY:Society for Conservation GIS Conference
DESCRIPTION:You are invited to attend our 2021 SCGIS Annual International Conference!   \nIn light of the ongoing pandemic and the value of connecting our community across continents\, the Conference will once again be virtual.  It will consist of a series of online sessions between July 19th and August 6th.  Conference registration will be free to all who wish to attend\, and we strongly encourage all attendees to join SCGIS if not already a member. \nKeynotes\nWe are pleased to announce two accomplished keynote speakers! \nJuly 19\, 2021: Walter Jetz received a DPhil from the University of Oxford in 2002. He is a Professor in the Ecology and Evolutionary Biology Department and in the School of the Environment at Yale University\, where he arrived in 2009. \nHis research addresses global biodiversity dynamics in a changing world and integrates ecological\, evolutionary\, geographical\, and environmental perspectives. One particular focus is the use of new technologies and data flows to study biodiversity distributions and responses to change across scales. Flagship projects include Map of Life (a research\, education and information platform addressing the global geographic distribution of species)\, the Half-Earth Project Map (addressing global priorities for area-based conservation) and EarthEnv (near-global high-resolution environmental data for biodiversity applications). For publications see here. \nAt Yale\, Walter Jetz founded and directs the Yale Center for Biodiversity and Global Change and its Max Planck-Yale Center for Biodiversity Movement of Global Change\, an International Max Planck Center. For IPBES\, he was member and co-manager of the Task Force on Data and Knowledge\, chaired the Task Group on Indicators and was Lead Author of the Global Assessment. He is Scientific Chair of the EO Wilson Biodiversity Foundation and co-chairs the Species Population Working Group of GEO BON. \n  \nJuly 26\, 2021:  Molly Burhans combines her passion for people and the planet with her experience in GIS\, design thinking\, business development\, and scientific research to understand and transform complex systems and make land work for good. As founder and Executive Director of GoodLands\, Burhans helps communities manage their properties for environmental\, social\, and financial impact. She was the chief cartographer for the first global data-based maps of the Catholic Church\, and her work combining faith\, environmental stewardship and technology has received international coverage and acclaim. Burhans is an Ashoka fellow\, a Henry Arnhold fellow\, and the 2019 United Nations Young Champion of the Earth for North America. She has been involved with the Vatican Youth Symposium\, Vatican Arts and Technology Council\, United Nations Youth Assembly\, and the Buckminster Fuller Catalyst program\, and was an Echoing Green fellowship finalist. \nWorkshops\nSCGIS is pleased to announce this line-up of technical workshops. Each workshop is listed in US Pacific Time\, and is offered at a cost of $28. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDate (July)\nStart Time (GMT -7\, USA Pacific)\nEnd Time (GMT -7\, USA Pacific)\nTopic\nInstructor\n\n\nTues 20th\n8:00 AM\n11:00 AM\nSpatial Data Analysis in R Part I\nAndy Lyons\n\n\nWed 21st\n9:00 AM\n12:00 PM\nIntroduction to Google Earth Engine: Tracking Changes in NDVI Over Time\nAnnie Taylor\n\n\nThurs 22nd\n8:00 AM\n11:00 AM\nSpatial Data Analysis in R Part II\nAndy Lyons\n\n\nThurs 22nd\n1:00 PM\n3:30 PM\nCreating and combining Story Maps\, Interactive Maps\, Surveys\, and Dashboards for gathering\, mapping\, analyzing\, and communicating information\nJoseph Kerski\n\n\nFriday 23rd\n9:00 AM\n12:00 PM\nExploring ArcGIS field apps\nMiriam Schmidts\n\n\nTues 27th\n9:00 AM\n12:00 PM\nIntroduction to Remote Sensing using Open Source Tools\nNancy Thomas\, Cindy Schmidt\n\n\nWed 28th\n9:00 AM\n12:00 PM\nOpen Source Remote Sensing: Land Cover Change Analysis\nNancy Thomas\, Cindy Schmidt\n\n\n\nConference Sponsorship\nIf you are interested in being a conference sponsor please read the attached guidelines. \nThis page will be continually updated as more details become available.

SUMMARY:Geo for Good Lightning Talks Series #5: Nature Conservation
DESCRIPTION:Google Earth Outreach team hosts a series of monthly lightning talks by and for nonprofits\, scientists and other change-makers who want to leverage mapping tools and technology for positive impact in the world. \nWe hope those talks will inspire you to think of new ways they can have impact with Google’s tools or provide operational or practical hints to improve and optimize their workflows. \nThe theme of August is Nature Conservation\, where we’ll hear from NGOs\, scientists and practitioners on how they use Google mapping tools to address issues in nature.
