GIS has come a long way! It has been 25 years since the first AWRA GIS & Water Resources Conference and the very term "GIS" doesn't mean the same thing as it did back then. Data, tools, models and good cartography are still incredibly important. Many of us still perform much of our geospatial work on desktops. But ---- we've moved well beyond desktops to the cloud, to decision making and water-based applications that are integral to ecology and society --- well beyond floodplain mapping!
