Workshop Description

How has this landscape changed? How many cars are in the parking lot? Where are the whales? This hands-on workshop introduces GeoAI and Esri’s pre-trained models to help you start answering a wide range of spatial questions. Working in ArcGIS Pro, you’ll explore the basics, try models that have already been trained, and learn how to make sense of the results—without building an AI model from scratch. Whether you’re just discovering GeoAI or looking to add something new to your professional toolkit, this session will give you the confidence and practical skills to put pre-trained models to work on your own spatial questions. No prior GeoAI experience required.
The workshop will take place in the Yale Center for Geospatial Solutions Earth Observation Lab (EOL) next door to the Peabody Museum. A limited number of computers will be available to workshop attendees. Otherwise, a personal laptop will be required. Esri Software licenses will be provided if necessary. Registration will be available during GIS Day check-in at the Peabody and is first come, first served.
