[mapserver-users] REMINDER: May 13, 2020 - OSGeo Local Chapter Virtual Meeting (aka TCMUG)

[Basques, Bob (CI-StPaul)]

LAST REMINDER!!  Remember to send your email for the invite/password.


All,

So, the last meeting was interesting in that we went virtual with it for the 
first time.  All in all it worked out very well.  We even had a few out of 
towners show up. We presented a couple of short presentations that seemed to be 
of interest to the group based on the questions raised.

Operator error (on my part) prevented me from recording anything from the last 
meeting, I forgot to hit the record button, so no pictures , not even a 
screenshot.   I'll attempt to do better this time around.  We can still add a 
second presentation if anyone is interested, just let me know, or raise the 
topic at the meeting

I'm liking the capabilities that Jitsi allows, but I also don't want the group 
to get bombed while a meeting is in progress.  Still learning how to best 
secure the meeting.  Until I figure out the basics on this, can I have everyone 
interested in attending send me their email address in order to send out the 
Jitsi meeting invite directly, vs announcing on the lists, which seems to be a 
no-no?  Looking into some sort of Web based distro of the invite that folks 
would need to login to.  But maybe someone out there has a better idea??


The May meeting will feature a guest speaker,

A blurb from Michael about the presentation:

"Coastal wetlands are a critical component of the Great Lakes ecosystem. 
Fluctuating lake levels, anthropogenic activity, and invasion by non-native 
vegetation have led to rapid changes to these valuable, yet fragile, wetland 
areas. Frequent monitoring is necessary to understand where and when changes 
are occurring, however, field visits are costly and time consuming. Techniques 
leveraging spaceborne synthetic aperture radar data enable timely remote 
monitoring of a variety of important variables, including wetland type and 
inundation extent. This talk will show methods used to generate map products 
for those parameters and share results generated with RADARSAT-2 SAR data for 
several pilot sites around the Great Lakes.

Duration: approx.. 30 min.
