-------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: [AISWorld] SIGGIS - Compelling reasons to Join now! Date: Fri, 6 Jul 2018 08:28:12 -0400 From: Daniel Farkas dfarkas@pace.edu To: aisworld@lists.aisnet.org

Colleagues,

Now is the perfect time to Join SIGGIS, a special interest group that focuses on Geographic Information Systems and Location Analytics. It is easy to join when renewing your AIS membership or by going to the AIS Website (Login -> Manage Profile->Join a SIG).

1. Learn how GIS and Location Analytics can transform your research and teaching by participating in our minitracks, workshops and tutorials.

2. At this year's AMCIS 2018 we will have both a Workshop for Academics and Researchers and a Tutorial for those that want a hands-on experience:

- *Workshop: Digital Disruption: A Workshop on the Implications for the Geospatial Realm* - *Tutorial: Social Media Operationalized for Locational Analytics: A Hands-on Tutorial*

3. Publish your work in our ICIS Pre-Conference Workshop Proceedings in the AIS eLibrary. Look for the CFP in the summer.

4. Keep in touch with like-minded colleagues through our Newsletters and Website.

We hope to see you at one of our events!
