Dr. Jerome E. (Jerry) Dobson is Professor of Geography at the University of Kansas and President of the American Geographical Society. He has been a leader of the geographic information systems (GIS) movement since the mid-1970s. Dobson is widely recognized for his landmark 1983 article on “Automated Geography,” his instrumental role in originating the National Center for Geographic Information and Analysis, and his leadership of the LandScan Global Population Project. His current research focuses on testing a new system for mapping minefields without walking on them; promulgating a new world standard for cartographic representation of mines, minefields, and mine actions; and demonstrating the value of geographic “expeditions” combining GIS, open-source intelligence, and fieldwork to address America’s foreign intelligence crisis.
