[OSGeo-Boston] Mobile App Contests

[Koch, Daniel (MISC)]

The Massachusetts Executive Office of Energy and Environmental Affairs has launched a mobile app contest.  Apps are expected to help the public find information about Massachusetts' natural resources and recreation opportunities.  EEA's Departments of Agricultural Resources (DAR), Conservation and Recreation (DCR) and Fish and Game (DFG) have made a variety of recreation data available via MassGIS' Geospatial Web Services. For more information see:

The MBTA has also announced the MBTA + Boston Bikes Developer Challenge which includes separate application and visualization competitions.  http://mbta.com/rider_tools/developers/default.asp?id=23648
