William J. Craig, Ph.D., 2009-2010 President of the National States Geographic Information Council (NSGIC), is the Keynote presenter for the 2010 Indiana GIS Conference.
Dr. Craig (Will) is the associate director of the Center for Urban and Regional Affairs (CURA), University of Minnesota. CURA is a leader in developing and supporting innovative community-based GIS. Their mission is to better connect the University with the state of Minnesota using GIS as a vital conduit.
Will is widely regarded to be one of the pioneers of urban and regional information systems and GIS. He started his carreer in GIS as project director of one of the world’s first statewide GIS - the Minnesota Land Management Information System. Since then he has become internationally known for his nearly 40 years of work with CURA, and for his dedication in promoting major national and global initiatives associated with data sharing, multipurpose cadastres, census data, spatial data infrastructures, and public participation GIS. Will's early work and guidance in the development of ethics standards for the GIS professional community can be seen in the GIS Certification Institute’s Code of Ethics and Rules of Conduct.
Professionally, Will earned his M.A. and Ph.D. in Geography from the University of Minnesota and is a certified GIS Professional. He has been extremely active in the promotion of geographic information and he has held numerous key appointments including: President of URISA (1986-87); President of the University Consortium for Geographic Information Science (1997); Chair of the inaugural national GIS/LIS Conference (1988); member of the Mapping Science Committee of the National Research Council (2000-2005); and member of the National Research Council’s Committee on Land Parcel Databases (2006-07).
In the fall of 2009, Will became one of only ten people to date to be inducted into the Urban and Regional Information Systems Association (URISA) GIS Hall of Fame, which recognizes and honors the most esteemed leaders of the geospatial community
