CALL FOR PROPOSALS
New needs, new markets, new sources of data and new sources of revenue. Opportunity in the location-based, geospatial industry is unlimited. Unfortunately, the ability to present your ideas at Where 2.0 is not.
The deadline for Where 2.0 Call for Proposals is November 26, 2007. Submit your proposal to lead a conference session, run a tutorial, or
demonstrate the cutting-edge technology you’ve been working on.

Let us hear from you. We want to know what you’re working on. Dazzle us with that cool new mashup of personalization, cell phone, social networking, and GIS data. Share the results of your academic research. Demo your product. Launch your startup. Showcase your locative art project. Find funding, locate talent and point the way to the future.
It starts when you submit a proposal to Where 2.0.

WHAT IS WHERE 2.0?
The single most important conference that focuses on new developments
in the geo-spatial industry. For three days, Where 2.0 takes place at the intersection of longitude, latitude, the Internet, ideas, and business value. Where 2.0 gathers the best and brightest minds in the
location-based industry to pitch ideas, present new products, and
identify the trends and technologies poised to revolutionize the geo-spatial arena.

JUST ADDED – PRACTICAL TUTORIALS
Thanks to a groundswell of popular interest, we’ve devoted a day to in-depth tutorials at Where 2.0. Tutorials are half-day sessions that
last a full three hours. Designed for participants to immerse themselves
into GIS technologies, these tutorials provide attendees with the
information, skills, and tools they need to return to work equipped to succeed.

If you would like to lead a tutorial, we are looking for proposals on
the following topics:

=Geo Support in Web Application Frameworks
=Today’s Best GeoStack Tools
=Mapping APIs
=GeoTargeting Methods
=Privacy Implications & the Law
=Getting the most out of GeoBrowsers
=Managing Geo Data Tools, Tips, Techniques
=Staying Up to Date with Protocols & Formats

Join us at Where 2.0. Present your ideas, share your research, showcase your art, and meet the people who are changing the way we find our way
in the world. Submit a proposal to make a presentation, lead conference sessions, or deliver tutorials at the next Where 2.0.

Call for proposals closes November 26, 2007.
Registration opens January 2008.

Microsoft e OGC?

A Microsoft enfim mexeu seus pausinhos e comprou uma cadeira como membro principal no Open Geospatial Consortium.

Se não pode vencê-los junte-se a eles.

É inevitável o avanço dos padrões, o mercado exige isso, demanda interoperabilidade e qualquer software que não possua essas propriedades certamente cairá em ostracismo.
O problema é que agora eles têm poder de voto no consórcio, vamos ver o que eles vão sugerir.
Quero ver agora o Virtual Earth usando o KML do Google, já que este já é candidato a padrão OGC.
