Who We Are

ONE SENTENCE ABOUT WHO WE ARE

The AGX exists to promote the application of geographic insights and analysis in all areas of society, including (but not limited to) applied climatology, business & economic geography, conservation, crime, economic development, energy, geographical information science,  geomorphology, geospatial analysis, health & medical geography, military geography, population geography, policy & planning, public safety, remote sensing, resource geography, sustainability, transportation and urban issues. ​

The AGX offers three primary venues for applied geography education, communication, and networking.  Our annual conference held every fall, is an opportunity for practitioners, academics, and students to share research and application ideas.  Our peer-reviewed journal, Papers in Applied Geography, is the conference’s official publication covering research and commentary across all areas of applied geography.  Our outreach team produces relevant content such as blogs and podcasts and maintains a website dedicated to the sharing of information for the community including information on events, articles, podcasts, blogs and other medium used to share ideas and encourage application across various disciplines.
