GIS Chat Podcast
Podcast Host Jazzmen J. Wilson interviews GIS (Geographic Information Systems) professionals who work in utility, conservation, mining, cartography, programming, design, project management, film, and so much more!
GIS is a system that creates, manages, analyzes and maps all types of data. GIS is used broadly across many types of fields as noted above and has an impact on our daily lives.
Jazzmen started conducting personal interviews with people within the GIS community to discover what they do in their roles. She decided that it would be great to share with others who are interested in gaining knowledge about GIS or those who are already in the world of GIS to learn different point of views on how others apply this application in their careers.
This GIS Chat platform gives a chance to learn insight from the professionals who apply GIS in their careers but also a personal look on who these people are as individuals by keeping the conversation informal, informative, and honest.

Jami Dennis
Jami Dennis, owner of the Geodetic Analysis LLC, a geospatial consulting company, gets really nerdy about data. Any opportunity to show her enthusiasm about data, she jumps on it!
From extracting data to present in front of a boardroom to creating visualizations like story maps and infographics, Jami loves how data can visually enhance our GIS experience through creative means.
Plus, getting involved in volunteer work has increased Jami's knowledge and skills in the industry.
On the side, we briefly talk about Jami's passion for natural resources and why that brought her to photography, and then ending on how someone with more of an artistic eye, can try their luck in the GIS industry.
