Using satellite-derived land surface temperature, high-resolution tree canopy and impervious surface data, and infrastructure data, the presentation will show how heat exposure varies across the city and why some neighborhoods experience greater risk than others. It will also highlight the development of Huntsville’s emerging heat resilience mapping platform and how these insights can help identify priority locations for interventions such as tree planting, shade infrastructure, cooler public spaces, and safer walking and transit routes. The talk will demonstrate how geospatial science can move beyond simply mapping heat to support practical decisions for a more heat-resilient Huntsville.</font> https://gisaa.org/event-6869848 https://gisaa.org/event-6869848 Mon, 16 Nov 2026 06:00:00 GMT <h3 data-start="190" data-end="220" align="center"><strong data-start="194" data-end="218"><u>GISAA Annual Meeting</u></strong></h3> <p data-start="221" data-end="351"><strong data-start="221" data-end="281">Hosted in conjunction with the GIS of Alabama Conference</strong><br data-start="281" data-end="284"> <strong data-start="284" data-end="349">Presented by the Alabama Geographic Information Office (AGIO)</strong></p> <p data-start="221" data-end="351"><strong data-start="284" data-end="349"><a href="https://algeohub.hub.arcgis.com/pages/2597d840d8b243648bda702602527732" target="_blank">Visit their website here.</a></strong></p> <p data-start="353" data-end="696">The <strong data-start="357" data-end="417">Annual Meeting of the GIS Association of Alabama (GISAA)</strong> serves as the organization’s cornerstone gathering for members, partners, and geospatial professionals across the state.
