The workshops are part of an effort to exchange information and provide access to spatial technologies developed at the center for natural resource survey. The workshops are available to the general public educators, state and federal agencies. Workshop participation by the international community is also greatly encouraged. Most of the workshops are 3 days long, creating compact presentation of materials. No previous experience in any of the topical workshop is assumed, except for advanced workshops. Appropriate handouts, photos, maps, and other forms of distributed materials are provided to the workshop participants. Some workshops will have scheduled field exercises. Hands-on exercises are utilized to involve workshop participation. Specialized workshop topics and transient workshops can be arranged based upon consultation and number of workshop participants. Scheduled workshops are subject to change. Please contact the workshop coordinator at the listed phone number for workshop information.

MI Introduction to Dendroecology
Introduction to Dendroecology February 24-25, 2000 Workshop Description: This two day introductory workshop will describe the concept of tree-ring analysis using skeleton plotting and crossdating techniques. The course will cover equipment required, field techniques, how to `choose' study trees, increment core collection and transport, core mounting and sanding, skeleton plotting and crossdating, and the use of computer programs for quality control and chronology development. The first day of the workshop will cover all items through sanding procedures in the morning. The afternoon will be spent in the field collecting cores and beginning core preparation in the lab. The second day of the workshop will be devoted to skeleton plotting and crossdating cores, measuring ring widths, and running COFECHA (a program designed to verify/assist with crossdating accuracy). The final portion of the workshop will consist of running ARSTAN ( a program designed to develop a species/site chronology from the collection of individual cores). Workshop participants will need to bring clothes appropriate for field activities, including sturdy boots and raingear. If you are interested in this workshop let me know.

December 1-3 Introduction to GPS for Natural Resource Assessment Survey Workshop Description: This three day introductory workshop will describe the concept of using a GPS system as well as the basic operation of the data logger, receiver and antenna. Various strategies of collecting field positional data for natural resource assessment and survey will be presented. GPS real-time and post-processing differential positional data will be described, displayed, and compared. GPS positional data will be exported to a Geographic Information System (GIS) as a demonstration of connecting collected data to an existing database. There will be a one day field exercise working with the GPS collection hardware. The workshop will be comprised of lectures, hands-on exercises, handouts, slides, video presentations and a GPS floppy disk data file of collected GPS ground points. The workshop is ideally suitable for participants who have none or very limited working experience with GPS. -- To unsubscribe from this list, send e-mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and put "unsubscribe MAPINFO-L" in the message body, or contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
