[Society for Conservation GIS - San Diego Chapter]

Hi Everyone, 

SCGIS is excited to host the 2025 SCGIS Conference this summer at the same venue as last year-- abstracts are now being accepted until next Friday, 2/28!

More info is below:

Subject: [SCGIS Listserv] SCGIS 2025 Conference: Call for Abstracts and Curated Sessions Submissions!



The Society for Conservation GIS is excited to announce that we have opened our Abstract and Curated Session portal for our in-person Conference at the National Conservation Training Center this June 30 - July 2, 2025!

What conservation GIS projects have you been exploring recently?  Our annual conference is the perfect place to share your work and experience with your colleagues. We invite you to submit abstracts on a wide range of topics pertaining to conservation GIS.

What's the difference between a Curated Session and an Abstract Presentation?

An Abstract Presentation is a single, 10-12 minute presentation (with 3 - 5 minutes for questions), where the solo presenter discusses their work on a project, problem or topic.  

A Curated Session can be in the form of a multi-speaker session, a panel or training.  These sessions are longer in length (example: 1 hour) and are designed by the submitter (you!).

Both of these formats can be on any subject, so long it relates to Conservation GIS.  If you aren't sure which format you would like to present under, please reach out to conferenc...@scgis.org - we'll be happy to help you choose!

To submit an abstract or curated session, please fill out the form below on Oxford Abstracts.

Please note that in order to submit an abstract, you will be prompted to login (or create an account) through Oxford Abstracts. We appreciate you taking this additional step!

Who we are

The Society for Conservation GIS (SCGIS) is an all-volunteer, U.S. based 501(c)3 non-profit organization. We are an organization committed to advancing conservation GIS globally by building and supporting a vibrant community of conservation GIS practitioners.  Our mission is to support and grow an inclusive global community using geospatial technology for conservation of biodiversity, natural environments, and cultural heritage. 

 
 

When: June 30th - July 2nd, 2025 

This year's theme is Geospatial Technology Innovations for Conservation. Geospatial technologies are evolving rapidly. We are challenged to keep up with developments in software platforms and new tools as exciting and creative technologies spring from commercial companies, research institutions and nonprofit conservation organizations.

This year, we are honored to have David Saah and Allen Carroll as our Keynote Speakers.

Allen Carroll - Esri

Allen will reflect on a decades-long career of map-based storytelling, dating back through 14 years at Esri and 27 years at National Geographic, and spanning the dawn of the digital age. He’ll discuss the special role of maps in weaving tales, and consider how combining maps and multimedia creates exciting storytelling opportunities

David Saah - University of San Francisco 

Dr. David Saah will discuss how innovations bridge science and decision-making to empower diverse groups in conservation. By integrating satellite imagery, AI-driven analytics, and open-source tools, we can enhance collaboration, improve environmental stewardship, and drive data-driven policy for a sustainable future.
