[gis_info] The National Map Users Conference and GIS Workshop abstract deadline is extended to February 6, 2011

[Sheri Schneider]

If you haven't submitted an abstract, please consider doing so. It is 
shaping up to be a great conference! Please contact me if you have any 
questions.

The "Call for Abstracts" supporting The National Map Users Conference and 
GIS Workshop to be held May 10-13, 2011 in Denver has been extended to 
Sunday February 6, 2011.  For more information and submission form, go to: 
http://nationalmap.gov/uc/
Why should I attend? The goal of the interactive workshop and conference 
is to serve and enhance communications among the communities of users of 
The National Map, Federal GIS specialists and scientists, and data 
providers. Topics will include existing applications and visions for 
future scientific and modeling applications using The National Map, 
opportunities for partnerships, and advances in geospatial technologies. 
The event will focus on user and partner interaction using various 
formats: interactive panels, lightening sessions, poster presentations, 
workshops, as well as presentations and demonstrations. This gathering is 
designed to provide a relaxed, collaborative, and informative venue to 
explore the direction of The National Map, mapping trends, and GIS 
applications. 


Thanks,

Sheri
