Baltimore, like many cities, currently has a mask mandate (masks are required indoors except when eating or drinking). In light of the uptick in COVID-19 cases, we are following the lead of many organizations and will now require that all attendees be fully vaccinated or have a negative COVID-19 test within 72 hours (3 days) prior in order to attend GIS-Pro 2021. If you are not or cannot be vaccinated and are already registered, we will refund your registration fee or transfer the registration to another individual upon request. Thank you for your understanding. As always, the health and safety of our members, partners, and staff is most important.

We’ll have copious amounts of sanitizer, will require masks, and we’ll have much more space separating attendees.
