This 30-minute webinar will provide a broad overview of the GIS Landscape in Connecticut and how it continues to evolve.

Next, they will talk about how to find authoritative data sources and tools and how the CT Geodata Portal is working to bring them together in one place. Finally, the talk will share ways to stay “in-the-know” when there are updates, changes, and additions to the CT GIS Landscape.
