Purpose
 

The Geographic Information Systems (GIS), Remote Sensing, and Telemetry Working Group provides an opportunity for TWS members to address issues of concern to the GIS community and to advance their own skills and understanding of GIS, remote sensing, and telemetry technologies.  The Working Group functions as a clearinghouse of information and expertise in the area of GIS, remote sensing, and telemetry for The Wildlife Society Council, TWS sections and chapters, and individual TWS members.  The Working Group includes, but is not limited to, GIS users, remote sensing specialists, cartographers, and landscape ecologists.

Spatial Technologies Expert Database
In an attempt to better serve the members of The Wildlife Society, the Working Group established the Spatial Technologies Expert Database to put interested researchers, managers, technicians and educators in contact with others who use these technologies daily.  Users may add their names to the database.  Anyone can search the database for a contact or for assistance with a problem.
