About Chesapeake URISA

---

The Chesapeake chapter is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization of the Urban and Regional Information Systems Association (URISA). We exist to develop, promote, and grow the field of geographic information systems (GIS) through member meetings, workshops, information and technology sharing, and networking.

Our members live and/or work in the National Capitol Region and beyond. They represent the geospatial community at the local, city, state, and Federal levels of government, as well as, non-government organizations, non-profit groups, and the private sector.

Chesapeake URISA strives to collaborate and network with a variety of groups ranging from educational institutions, Meetup.com groups, other URISA chapters, URISA International, state information committees, and leading GIS technology businesses.
