[OSGeo-Discuss] April 20th is CUGOS 2011 Spring Fling at UW in Seattle

2011-04-13 Thread karsten vennemann
GIS Folks,

the event below is still in flux regarding final presentations and definite 
times  subjects but I wanted to get this message out for all to know (copied 
from http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/CUGOS_2011_Spring_Fling):

On April 20th, 2011, CUGOS ( http://www.cugos.org/ www.cugos.org, 
http://cugos.posterous.com/ [1]) will be holding a special all-day spring 
fling event at University of Washington Seattle Campus in place of our regular 
monthly meeting. We will provide FREE food and drinks, thanks to following 
sponsors: TerraGIS( http://terragis.net/ [2]), Spatialdev( 
http://spatialdev.com/ [3]), Zonar System( http://zonarsystem.com/ [4])  
UW Geospatial Club. 

The basic idea of this event is to come in the morning to learn something new 
(tools and real workflows)... stick around and apply it in the afternoon on 
some semi-structured hack sessions... and then learn some high level stuff in 
the evening.  As such, the day will be broken up as follows:


*   9-12: morning session -- speed workshops 

*   12-1: lunch 

*   1-4: afternoon session -- open hacking 

*   4-6: dinner 

*   6-8: evening session -- regular meeting

All skill and interest levels are welcome! -- please join us for as much of the 
day as you can.
 
For more details check   http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/CUGOS_2011_Spring_Fling
