About us
Hi and Welcome! We are a group of enthusiastic people interested in maps and the technologies and data that create them. We are techies, artists, programmers, designers, geographers, developers, conservationists, data geeks, students, and urban planners. Really, anybody interested in maps.
Maps and spatial information has long been used for exploring, understanding, and planning our world. Maps, as data and art, provide a medium to discover and critique our environment and community. Our meetups are designed to help bring together a broad community of users while supporting collaboration and developing a knowledge base around geotechnologies. Come join us and see why every X needs a Y.
BayGeo is the local non-profit for users of geospatial technology, people new to mapping, and GIS professionals. BayGeo and its partners offer educational workshops, social events, and a lecture series around "geo" and other related topics.

What is GeoBeers?
GeoBeers is BayGeo's recurring meetup, which provides a space for socializing, networking, and learning for the Bay Area's geospatial community. Enjoy a drink or two with people who are as into maps & geospatial technology as you are!As a Bay Area-centered community, we want to give members equal opportunities for members around The Bay to join BayGeo events. GeoBeers rotates between San Francisco and Oakland monthly, with GeoBeers San Jose being held quarterly.
Additional GeoBeers will be hosted in various cities around the Bay, depending on availability and member requests. So be sure to let us know if there's a great spot near you for a bonus GeoBeers!
We look forward to seeing you there!
