The CGIS is continuing its effort to provide a geospatial perspective on the COVD-19 pandemic for the public. The Center's work has been featured in the 2020 edition of the College of Behavioral and Social Science's magazine "Be The Solution." 

CGIS faculty and students have been working with Dr. Frauke Kreuter in the Department of Joint Program in Survey Methodology (JPSM) on their project with Facebook and other universities to store and map COVID-19 symptoms and related data collected through a worldwide public survey.

We are combining the results from this new collaboration with our previously published COVID-19 maps. These maps utilize data from the Johns Hopkins University COVID-19 Data Repository where two types of maps have been created to show COVID-19 cases by U.S. county. Read more about the maps at https://issuu.com/bsosumd/docs/umd_magazine_2020_finalweb__1_/28
