Thought I'd pass along a quick recap (nothing definitive) from our FOG Camp...
We had 5 speakers make low tech (white board only) presentations for 10 mins each and had time to mingle/drink. I posted some pics on flickr tagged with "geowankinglive." Add you own! About 25 people showed up, both posters and lurkers. *Chris Wilson - 97% street centerline accuracy isn't good enough--using in vehicle probes can we achieve significantly greater accuracy and save lives (this is a federal effort). What can our community do with this data? What needs to happen for it to be viable? *Anselm Hook - Geocontent aggregation (www.placedb.org). *Brady Forrest - Talked about where Where2.2 is going this year *Tim Foresman - Discussed upcoming I nternational Symposium on Digital Earth *Tim Caro-Bruce - a9's efforts to capture drive-by photos of 14m storefronts. Ok, not quite summaries, but others can better comment about respective presentations... Also, some geoevent news for those in the SF area--we will be overtaken by geoconferences next Spring!! *CalGIS (April 4-7, Oakland) *Location Intelligence (April 16-18, San Francisco) *Where2.2 (May 29-30, San Jose) *International Symposium on Digital Earth (June 5-9, Berkeley) Ian White :: Urban Mapping, Inc 690 Fifth Street Suite 200 :: San Francisco CA 94107 T 415.946.8170 :: F 866.385.8266 :: www.urbanmapping.com
