critical GIS redux

Matthew W. Wilson, PhD 40

using GIS in radical ways

situating GIS practices

critical GIS research areas• critical geographic inquiry with GIS• university-community partnerships with GIS• studies of geospatial technology development and use• histories of mapping technologies• geospatial intelligence, human terrain systems• inclusion of unconventional ‘data’ in GIS• historical GIS• affective GIS, GIS as art• geographies of user-generated content and the geoweb• ethics, privacy, surveillance• geodemographics and ‘volunteered’ geographic information

Matthew W. Wilson, PhD 41

the new mappings collaboratory• http://newmaps.uky.edu• themes:

– public engagement– ‘big data’ and user-generated Internet content– place-based thinking, analysis, and representation

• projects:– community-based, participatory GIS– exploring user-generated geodata– Open Data Lexington– DIY GIS / citizen science
