On Monday October 6th (workshop day) 2014, I'm teaching a
"OpenStreetMap for GIS People" formatted workshop at the Georgia
Geospatial Conference . <br>
<br>
At 5:30 p.m. EST I plan on having a meetup in the room in which I'm
teaching the class (in the Classic Center - Room Athena C). 10
Minutes into the meeting we will most likely relocate to a local
eating and drinking establishment to solve the world's problems and
come up with a plan for the group. I will leave as much of a trail
as to where we are going that is allowed by the local litter/sign
ordinance. <br>
<br>
If you're interested in FOSS4G/QGIS and you are going to be at the
conference - please attend. <br>
<br>
If you can't but are still interested - <a

href="http://www.meetup.com/qgis_us/Atlanta-QGIS-Users-Group/">http://www.meetup.com/qgis_us/Atlanta-QGIS-Users-Group/</a><br>
<br>
We plan on covering all sorts of topics from QGIS to PostGIS to
anything else that in which the group is interested. <br>
<ul>
<li>What is QGIS? </li>
<li>Have no clue what Free and Open Source Software is for GIS? </li>
<li>Will it work with the Commercial stuff?</li>
<li>Why is OpenStreetMap? <br>
</li>
<li>When does PostGIS Day happen? <br>
</li>
<li>This stuff is Free - it can't be that good...Can it?</li>
<li>Map Server Serves Maps? <br>
</li>
<li>Leaflet? Because it's fall? <br>
</li>
<li>Make GIS Fun again? WHAT?</li>
</ul>
<p>Everyone is welcome from companies to casual enthusiasts to the
person that didn't wish to sit in their rooms on Monday night.
Once we get through October 6th plan on a bigger meeting within
Atlanta. <br>
</p>
<p>Thanks for your time, <br>
</p>
<p>Randy<br>
