This week, we were delighted to host @CAgovernor@GavinNewsom and demonstrate how Esri technology supports climate resilience, disaster response, and 30x30 conservation efforts.
Way to go Kevin, Cameron, and Marie from @OCGovCA sharing the department’s stories of innovation & more importantly a culture of Survey and GIS professionals working together! #EsriUC2023#EsriUC
This day 4 years ago I was in Redlands, Ca, getting the magical Jack Dangermond approval of our @EsriUC presentation in San Diego, and experiencing the first of 2 big quakes in California in 2 days!
Suffice to say today didn't quite meet those dizzying heights!
Three years after I stood on this stage in San Diego, sharing something of the amazing journey of shared education in Lurgan. It's wonderful to be able to tune in virtually to be inspired once again by the one and only Jack Dangermond. #esriuc
Head Boy, Nathaniel Cunningham, laying a wreath on behalf of the governors, staff and pupils of Lurgan College at the cenotaph in Lurgan town centre this morning. ‘Lest we forget’
Hannah Trew has been recognised by @Esri as a Star of #Spatial Science, in the latest edition of ‘Women and #GIS’. From @LurganCollege to the @EsriUC Plenary Stage in San Diego and now a published author...amazing things can happen with #TheScienceofWhere.

We're off to Derry/Londonderry today for our Shared Ed GCSE History trip to the walled city. This year we are using @esriSurvey123 & @GISinSchools to collect pupil perceptions of the stories they tell. Pupils will be analysing their results in the afternoon. Exciting times! #GIS
It's not everyday an email pops up with the tag "New Yorker Interview Request". I didn't delay responding!
A few weeks later, Anna, a New Yorker reporter, joined us on our Shared Ed #GIS perception survey of Lurgan. Here's her story, published today.

Great to have one last Christmas leg of the world tour of our Shared Education #GIS presentation from San Diego 2019. This time it was back to where it started - Belfast, & the Board of the @Ed_Authority As ever, the pupils where amazing as they shared insights from our project
Happy geographer using @esriSurvey123 to collect data on their perceptions of different areas of the town of Lurgan. They may live in a divided town, but shared experiences like these promote understanding and break down stereotypes as the students learn about each other.
A wonderful double page spread in this week's @LurganMailnews about our Shared Ed #GIS mapping project with our geographers, including our presentation at the @EsriUC in San Diego in July. Great to continue to be able to spread the good news of our work in the town!
The amazing #TeamLurgan in action today, sharing something of our amazing adventure with @EsriIreland using #GIS to explore segregation in Lurgan as part of our Shared Ed programme.
We even got photobombed in the Titanic Quarter at one stage...! #TheCameraNeverLies#GoT
Summary video of our presentation at the Esri User Conference 2019 in San Diego. We got to share something of how our Shared Education programme is breaking down barriers in Lurgan with the 19,000 people gathered there.
