The Esri
Mid-Atlantic User Group (Esri-MUG)
is a multi-disciplinary organization with a
membership base of users applying Geographic
Information System (GIS) technology and
applications in both private and public areas. Esri-MUG is committed to
assisting members within its 121,000 square mile geographical extent
(Pennsylvania, Delaware, New Jersey, Maryland, District of Columbia, Virginia,
and West Virginia) to identify and educate users regarding GIS trends, Esri
product development, local/regional applications, and events of interest.
We
are receptive to partnerships with other organizations (both GIS as well as “IS”
oriented) at the formal and grass-roots level in our effort to convey the uses
and benefits of GIS. We hold one (1) annual conference for all users, as well
as “local” meetings each year in partnership with Esri, our
sponsoring organization. These meetings, as well as our web site, serve to
bring together our members in an interactive environment to see demonstrations
of Esri product developments and demonstrate local applications of GIS
technology.
Our goal is to foster collaboration among all user entities and
monitor industry trends to assure that our knowledge base is as current and
practical as possible.
We welcome all interested members with a focus towards
those using, or planning to use, Esri products as part of their overall
information system design and application.
