Dear Member,

In these extraordinary times, we want to support you and your family by
launching a new initiative called GeoBit. GeoBit will be one-hour
educational webinars for kids focused on geospatial concepts and
technology. These GeoBits will be free and recorded, allowing us and you to
share with the community.

The 1st GeoBit: Career Opportunities in Land Surveying

   - Presenter: Ryan Swingley
   - When: April 30th at 2:00 pm EST (11am PST)
   - About: In this series, Mr. Swingley will discuss career opportunities
   in the exciting would of Land Surveying. He will discuss what surveying is
   and how it affects the physical world around us. Mr. Swingley will talk
   about different career segments in land surveying and the future job
   outlook.
   - Age group: 8th to 12th grade
   - Presenter: Ryan Swingley graduated from Vincennes University with A.S.

The 2nd GeoBit: Studying Population Change using Interactive Mapping Tools.

   - Presenter: Joseph Kerski
   - When: May 5th at 2:00 pm EST (11am PST)
   - About: Explore how to examine patterns of population change,
   migration, and demography with interactive web maps and web mapping
   applications.  Join geographer Joseph Kerski as we investigate how these 2D
   and 3D maps can be easily accessed, modified, and turned into powerful
   online presentations.
   - Age group: Middle School
   - Presenter: Dr. Kerski has served as geographer in government,
   industry, academia, and nonprofit organizations, has authored 5,000 videos,
   1,000 lessons, 2,000 essays, 8 books, 75 articles and chapters, podcasts,
   and other resources; his research focuses on teaching and learning with
   Geographic Information Systems.

The 3rd GeoBit: Product Management, 3D, and maps

   - Presenter: Chris Andrews
   - When: May 8th at 2:00 pm EST (11am PST)
   - About: Maps are cool, but without tools, few people would know how to
   create them or share them. Product management is the art and science of
   guiding the development of a product from concept to sale to use by a
   real-world person to accomplish work. At Esri, we fuse product development
   with maps and other technologies, such as 3D, to create the tools that are
   used to map our world, analyze spatial problems, and communicate to
   scientists, political leaders, and business owners.
   - Age group: Middle School
   - Presenter: Chris Andrews is the Group Product Manager for an Esri team
   covering products focused on Smart Cities, BIM Project Delivery, and
   3D. During his 20-year career, Chris has focused on exposing the value of
   GIS throughout organizations by combining cutting edge technology with ease
   of use to put the most capability in the user’s hand with the least amount
   of specialized technology expertise required. Chris holds a Bachelor of
   Science in Geology-Biology and a Master of Science in Ecology and
   Evolutionary Biology from the University of Rochester where he concentrated
   on spatial clustering analysis and spatial population simulation modeling.
