Eric Shook is an Associate Professor in the Department of Geography, Environment, and Society at the University of Minnesota and the Domain Champion for GIS for the NSF-supported Extreme Science and Engineering Discovery Environment (XSEDE). His research is focused on geospatial computing, which is situated at the intersection of geographic information science and computational science, with particular emphasis in the areas of cyberGIS, data-intensive spatio-temporal analytics and modeling, and spatially-explicit domain-specific languages. He is the lead for the Hour of Cyberinfrastructure project focused on helping learners build cyber literacy for GIScience (hourofci.org).
