Would you like to create online maps to display and share your data
with others?  Do you have questions about how to use popular online
mapping services?  Are you just curious about new mapping technology
and software?

 Join us for a FREE Web-mapping and Geo-enabled Tools Meeting
Wednesday, May 16th from 8:30 am to 4:30 pm. at the Oregon Coast

 This all-day conference will introduce participants to some
commercial and open-source web-based services, demonstrate how other
organizations are using them, and ways to use these services to create
and serve your GIS data on the web.  This meeting is hosted by the

open to anyone.  There will be people from various disciplines,
backgrounds and knowledge level (beginners to developers).
