GIS User Group

Everyone is welcome! Whether you have been using GIS for years, just learning, or wanting to learn; the GIS User Group (UGUG) will have something for you. These meetings provide a forum for networking, education, and fun.

The UCAR GIS User Group will meet the second Wednesday of each month.

Our next meeting will be on December 9th at 2:00 - 3:00 PM in FL2- 1001

Google Earth Demo

Google has just granted UCAR a free 1 year license for Google Earth Pro, which has some advanced features not available in the free version of Google Earth. Some resident Google Earth/Map experts will present a demo on how to use Google Earth/Map. Please join us to view the demo and to ask questions about how to apply Google to your day-to-day work.
