I chatted with some of you about this FREE event at Minnewebcon yesterday. If you are at all interested in the new (open source!) tools for mapping and GIS analysis and in meeting some of the local GIS geeks, consider coming to this. You have to register by Thursday.
Description:
Spatial Hotdish is a friendly, team-based map mashup ‘competition’ combining people from the web development and “traditional GIS“ communities in the Twin Cities. Think... Iron Chef with a geospatial (and Minnesota) twist! Work on a team to create a browser-based spatial data visualization using data that you find and a few last-minute secret ingredients.
Registration deadline extended until April 19.
