An Exploration of GIS Across the Disciplines: Love Canal as a Case Study In-Person / Online

Discover how Geographic Information Systems (GIS) can bring together data, storytelling, and research across fields like health sciences, urban planning, and information science. Using the environmental crisis at Love Canal as a case study, this session introduces key GIS tools—ArcGIS StoryMap, ArcGIS Online, and ArcGIS Field Maps—through real-world examples. We’ll explore archival collections and how spatial data can be used to interview residents, map environmental risks, and build engaging narratives. Whether you're new to GIS or looking to apply it in your own discipline, this presentation offers practical and interdisciplinary insights and is open to all.
