GIS Workshops and Development
Stay ahead of the curve with our upcoming lineup of GIS events and hands-on workshops for the 2026–2027 academic year. Whether you're a student, researcher, or just interested in GIS, these events offer valuable opportunities to explore cutting-edge tools, emerging technologies, and real-world applications of GeoAI, spatial modeling, and app development.
From wildfire readiness assessments to water quality modelling and no-code web app design, each session is led by experts in the field, including industry leaders from Esri Canada. Plus, don't miss key events like the Esri Education & Research Conference and the Esri Canada ECCE App Challenge.
For more information about any event, please contact Kathy Tang (ktang28@uwo.ca).
This workshop will first introduce students to the Western ECCE (Esri Canada GIS Centre of Excellence) Program, including planned activities, training opportunities, the App Challenge, Esri conferences, and awards. The second part of the workshop will provide an introduction to ArcGIS StoryMaps, giving students an opportunity to explore how StoryMaps can be used to create engaging, interactive presentations that combine maps and other multimedia content.
