Remote GIS volunteering with GISCorps
Backed by: GISCorps (Geospatial Professional Network, formerly URISA)
If you are a geographic information systems (GIS) professional, you register and respond to calls for remote geospatial missions, many tied to disaster response.
WarningThere is no confirmed GISCorps mission for the Yaracuy earthquake: registering leaves you ready for future calls, possibly via HOT/OSM. The page includes a Donate (money) button, separate from this volunteering channel.
What it does
GISCorps matches GIS volunteers with missions when they are activated, many of them remote and disaster-related, including collaboration with Humanitarian OpenStreetMap (HOT) projects. For a GIS professional in the diaspora it is the structured way to contribute technical skill.
How to take part
- Register as a volunteer at giscorps.org/become-a-volunteer/.
- When a mission is activated, GISCorps issues calls and matches volunteers by profile.
- Respond to the remote calls that fit your experience.
