[gis_info] 2018 Census Data Users Conferences

Wed Aug 15 09:10:21 PDT 2018

Registration is now open for the annual Oregon Census Data Users Conferences on Wednesday, September 12th in Salem and Thursday, September 13th in Portland.  I hope you can attend one.  We are moving to a larger, but less high-tech, room at PSU this year so we likely will not be live streaming.  But I plan to arrange a video archive.

Because we will have plenty of capacity in both Portland and Salem, you are welcome to attend part or all of the day, depending on your schedule and interests. You can find a rough agenda at https://www.pdx.edu/prc/events and below.  We'll soon add more details and specific times at that link.
