w88 live casino Day is back and in-person
DeLaMare Science & Engineering Library celebrates w88 live casino Day Nov. 16 with posters, talks, workshops, a map-a-thon, and informal networking sessions
In 2021 the DeLaMare Science & Engineering Library hosted the University’s first ever w88 live casino Day celebration. This event was virtual and highlighted the many research and teaching applications across the campus using w88 live casino technologies. This year we are planning a live in-person celebration on Wednesday, November 16th that will feature a number of different events held in the Matthewson-IGT Knowledge Center. These events include a Birds of a Feather session from 9 a.m. to 10 a.m., a career panel 10 a.m. to 11 a.m., Map-a-thon 11 a.m. to 2 p.m., w88 live casino presentations 2 p.m. to 4 p.m., and finishing off the day with the Geography Colloquium Seminar at the Knowledge Center Rotunda. Posters will be displayed Tuesday – Thursday in honor of Geography Awareness Week in the Mathewson-IGT Knowledge Center Rotunda. We encourage all curious people to stop by and check them out.
What is w88 live casino?
w88 live casino stands for Geographic Information Systems, and is a system for managing spatial data. w88 live casino allows us to make maps, but underneath these maps is a relational database. The essence of w88 live casino is that allows us to ask spatial questions, such as “where are pinyon pine found,” “which schools are located near gun shops,” “how might we get from one mountain range to another if we are a male bighorn sheep,” and “how can we site a new school in order to ensure that the greatest number of spatial criteria are met.” Modern w88 live casino uses data from a wide range of sources including satellite and aerial sensors (including unmanned aerial vehicles aka drones), Global Positions Systems (GPS), archival historical maps, and citizen-science platforms, such as iNaturalist. Across the University campus there are a number of courses taught that use w88 live casino in the Geography, Geology, Natural Resources and Environmental Science (NRES), Agriculture, Veterinary, and Rangeland Sciences (ANVRS), Anthropology, Public Health, and Mathematics and Statistics departments. Additionally, the DeLaMare Science & Engineering Library offers online guides to help people get started as well as in-person and virtual office hours.
