The Landscape of Geospatial Data & Social Sciences in Baltimore City:

Interested in learning more about the different types of geospatial/mapping data you can access for use in your Baltimore-based research? We have invited two speakers from organizations in Baltimore City who work on producing geospatial datasets for public access, and whose organizations develop projects that make use of this information for understanding social dynamics in Baltimore.
