More Than Just Maps
Navigating the world of GIS takes more than being able to make a pretty map. Between the science, technology, and artistic design required to be successful in the geospatial field, things can get confusing. Join us as we talk with GIS veterans and geniuses who know a thing or two about how to find your way from student to professional and beyond, while also chatting about some neat tools, tricks, and trends. Presented by the URISA Texas Chapter.

On this week’s episode, I have the pleasure of speaking with Chris Wayne of Directions Magazine. Chris has held many titles over years from archeologist, professor, GIS specialist, author and even voice actor. These days he goes by Geographer. We chat about the non-linear path his career has taken from starting from his 12 year stint at Carter Lake National Park, where he re-built the GIS system from the ground up, to these days where he runs his own GIS consulting business helping small companies and non-profits solve their problems with maps.
