GIS In the Rockies Workshops & Presentations

[BrianT]

All:

GIS In the Rockies (Sept 14-16 www.gisintherockies.org), is coming up
and they are soliciting Workshop & Presentation proposals.

We had a fairly successful workshop last year focusing on GeoServer
and PostGIS, as well as a variety of open-source themed presentations.

This is a great opportunity to "proselytize" to the Front Range crowd,
so I'd urge you to consider participating.

A couple of topics I'd like to see if at all possible--

1) Advanced Web Cartography with Mapnik

2) License free web mapping--Open Layers (or, hell, Open Scales) +
OSM tiles

3) Open source stacks on demand (in the Cloud)

4) Geo-processing & Hadoop

I'm confident we'll already be doing a GeoServer workshop.

Any open source workflow, or hybrid workflow, where real work is
getting done is a story worth sharing.


OSGeo is putting together a LiveDVD of a blizzard of open source apps--
http://download.osgeo.org/livedvd/--so that's a great way to go for
workshops (and for futzing around with unfamiliar packages).

Respond in this thread with whatever ideas you might have.


Cheers,
Brian

Hi all,

As an FYI: I will be chairing the Open Source track at this year's GISITR. I'd love to see some presentations from this group. I believe abstracts are due May 14th, so if you haven't already submitted yours please do so. I will provide more info as I receive it.

Cheers,

PS Has anyone on here done any work with the OpenLayers Module in Drupal?
