the 2020 webinar series:

Putting Data to Work: Building Public-Private Partnerships to Increase
Resilience & Enhance the Socioeconomic Value of Data


*Putting Spatial Data to Work for COVID-19 Response and Recovery *
*(*TODAY* Wed. 9/23 at 1 pm ET/10 am PT)*The response to COVID-19 is
providing significant insight into how to improve data, information
products, and outcomes. With maps and spatial analysis, organizations are
delivering deeper understanding of virus trends, increased awareness of
impacted populations, insights about where resources are needed most, and
transparent communications with community stakeholders and the public.
Location intelligence helps communities ensure testing sites are accurately
placed, personal protective equipment (PPE) inventories are tracked,
communities adhere to social distancing guidance and surge management is
optimized. From indoor space management to contact tracing and community
resilience, Dr. Geraghty will highlight a range of applications and success
stories from GIS users around the world who are putting spatial data to work
 to support their COVID-19 response and recovery efforts.
