The NSGIC Board of Directors, Conference Committee, and staff are looking forward to heading to San Antonio for the 2024 NSGIC Annual Conference to be held September 22-27 at the Holiday Inn San Antonio-Riverwalk. The Annual Conference is the place to enhance geospatial excellence and collaboration for state, local, tribal, and federal GIS policymakers and coordinators, private sector partners and other leaders in the geospatial ecosystem.
