The Data Studio is hosting David Yun, Natural Resources Management and Environmental Sciences (NRES) lecturer and Geographic Information Services Supervisor for the City of San Luis Obispo, on Thursday, April 30, 11am to noon, in 111C. Yun will discuss how the scanning of historic maps and documents using GIS tools has provided new ways to visualize and connect to information from the past.
Yun will demonstrate online mapping and web apps to show users how to find and view historic buildings, chart the growth of the city over the decades, and compare side-by-side maps of San Luis Obispo as it is today with as it was more than 100 years ago.
