GIS Consultations at the Libraries
The Libraries offer several GIS services to help any UMass student, staff, or faculty member with troubleshooting software issues, finding data, and conducting vector/raster spatial analysis. We can help connect you to resources about related topics, like software licensing, data management, data visualization, photogrammetry and 3D model construction.

Book a consultation with the Geospatial Information Librarian (Becky) to get real-time help with a GIS question. Zoom and in-person appointments are both available.
