Does anyone already have plans to assemble all the 2007 Tiger edges data into a comprehensive road layer for Oregon? We're talking about doing it but don't want to rebuild data if someone else has it already.

Hi Cy,
I just wanted to let you know that  MAPS GIS  from Lane Community
College, Eugene will be displaying student work at the capital in Salem
Thursday April 9 from 8:30 am -3 p.m.  Our poster maps highlight Tsunami
and Earthquake social impacts on the Oregon Coastal and other topics
specific to Oregon.   We will be located  on the ground floor, next to
the information desk and gift shop.  If you have a few minutes please
stop by.  Also pass the word if you know of any agencies that could use
a summer intern or would enjoy seeing our work. Have a great weekend.

 1:15 - 3:45, Salem
Message-ID: <C91A0C9E3E16634B80F7D61B1F2ED7D176B656ADD7@MBX4.EXCHPROD.USA.NET>

Oregon Hydrography Framework meeting announcement:

Date/time:	April 29, 2009 (Wednesday), 1:15 - 3:15 (we can go longer if necessary)
Location:	Conference rm 124A (main floor)
		North Mall Office Building
		725 Summer St. NE, Salem, OR

(metered parking is available to the south of the building on Union St. NE and to the east on Summer St. NE; you can park longer at the state "yellow" lot two blocks south)


We haven't met in a while as a state group, so this will give us a chance to focus on hydro data issues particular to Oregon state and local agencies.  We will cover the following:

- status of the NHD (National Hydrography Dataset) in Oregon
- methods for migrating to the NHD from the last the hydro model--the LLID route system (former regional standard)
- status of hydro data use at Oregon state agencies (& anyone else in the state that would like to talk)

I'll firm up the agenda a little more, but we will cover the topics listed above.  Our federal partners in Portland will be down to update us on the agenda.  They're at a NHD stewardship conference this week in Denver ("Home of the NHD").  So, there should be lots of new information.

Please pardon any cross-postings as I get this out to other email lists.


Bob

Hi Cy,
Lane Community College is sponsoring a  Student GIS Showcase Tuesday April 28th 3:00-4:00 p.m. Attached is an invitation with more detail.  I know you are a  distance away but if anyone in your circles is interested in providing a summer internship, this would be a great way to meet potential interns and see their work. 
Cheers!

Hello,
Just a heads up.  The next Portland ArcGIS Server User Group meeting will be next Thursday at Metro in room 370A/B from 10-noon.  Big thanks for Metro and MarkB for setting us up with a room.

The vision of this group is to create a regular-occurring, collaborative, and technical meeting environment to facilitate GIS knowledge exchange.   I'm trying to set up an environment for you all to get to know each other, share what you are doing (technology, development, training, data creation, services development), and provide a forum for technical education.

John Sharrard will be doing a technical discussion on ArcGIS Server best practices for deploying web maps.  See his abstract below.

10-10:30: Round table introductions
Give us a quick shout out for your agency and what you are doing with GIS.  I.E., 4 users, 9.2 ArcIMS application development, currently digitizing project for FIT team, deployed in/for planning and finance departments, etc.  This is meant to teach others about your capabilities.  New users and advanced users have A LOT to contribute.

10:30-11:15: John Sharrard, ESRI
ArcGIS Server best practices technical discussion.

11:15-11:25 Break
11:30-noon: open discussion

If you get this from the GPL or OGIC list servers and want to be on the regular list then please send me an email.  Pardon my cross posting on the OGIC and GPL lists.  A lot of people are still telling me they haven't seen this new list.
 Thanks
Rob





"How to build better web map services"
Deploying effective, attractive, and high performing web maps requires more design effort than simply authoring a map document and publishing to the web via ArcGIS Server.   Oftentimes, the skills and methods we've learned as GIS professionals get in the way of designing web mapping systems.  It's critical that web map designers understand the needs of the end user application and the implementation of appropriate web service technology to create a great web site.     This presentation will highlight some of the techniques and tools available to create a new generation of web map sites.
