from ESRI President Jack Dangermond
GIS Day is a day dedicated to showing, teaching, and inspiring other with the use of GIS technology. This event aims to spread enthusiasm and help people learn how to use GIS for themselves鈥攊n their work, in their classes, where they volunteer, or even for their hobbies and interests.
GIS Day was founded 25 years ago by ESRI President and Co-Founder Jack Dangermond. Dangermond credits Ralph Nader with being the person who inspired the creation of GIS Day. He considered the event a good initiative for people to learn about geography and the many uses of GIS. He wanted GIS Day to be a grassroots effort and open to everyone to participate.
