As a former geography teacher and self-proclaimed GIS nerd, I’m thrilled to proclaim today as Geographic Information Systems Day. Here in Minnesota, we are using GIS to make state government more effective - whether we’re replacing lead pipes or expanding homeownership.

My geographer daughter: “I went to @BorchertMapLib and they were giving away free maps. I got all these beautiful maps. I love maps!”
