Join the CGA in welcoming GIS professionals from the City of Newport News titled GIS in Local Government : Organizing Chaos and Empowering Decisions
In the world of local government, data is everywhere—but without the right tools, it’s just chaos. GIS (Geographic Information Systems) turns scattered information into powerful, visual insights that help cities and counties make smarter decisions. From mapping infrastructure and tracking public services to planning for growth and responding to emergencies, GIS is the secret weapon that keeps communities running smoothly. Join us as we explore how GIS helps Newport News to organize the madness, streamline operations, and shape the future—one map at a time.
