Marshall University will celebrate GIS Day, an international,
annual, one-day event designed to share with and showcase Geographic
Information Systems (GIS) technology for the local community from 9 a.m. until
2 p.m. Nov. 14 on the Huntington campus.
GIS Day activities at Marshall are
sponsored by the geography department, integrated science and technology
department, and the Rahall Transportation Institute. Activities will take place
in Room BE5 on the lower level of the Memorial Student Center and in Corbly
Hall.
They will include undergraduate and
graduate research posters, a keynote speech from Ranger Frank Sellers from the
National Park Service and activities for students from Spring Valley and
Chesapeake, Ohio, high schools. Those students will participate in Google Earth,
ArcGIS and GPS contests.
James M. Leonard, a geography professor
and director of the Geography Department GIS Lab at Marshall, said about 40
high school students are expected to attend.
"And, we expect perhaps an additional 35 Marshall students will show
up to view the posters and attend the talk by Ranger Sellers," Leonard said.
Leonard said Sellers, a ranger at New River Gorge National River, is
expected to talk about Chief Justice John Marshall's 1812 expedition through
the Allegheny Mountains to find a canal route between Richmond and the Ohio
River. Marshall traveled the New and Greenbrier rivers on this expedition.
