[TCMUG] RE: MN GIS/LIS Conference

[Jessica Fendos]

Brian and David:
 
I agree with Jim. Advanced GeoMOOSE workshop will be especially
meaningful for people who attended last year's GeoMOOSE training
session. I don't see much of the PostGIS stuff available either.
Thanks!

Brian,
If you have to choose, do the Advanced workshop, there aren't enough of
those.
My 2 cents,
Jim

Hi Everyone,
 
The GeoMOOSE group has been talking about submitting a proposal this
year for a Beginner and Advance workshops.  We are curious if anyone
else is planning to do a workshop on OSGeo projects?  Here is what we
are thinking for two separate half day workshops.  Please feel free to
give us some feedback.  I think the proposals are due next Friday.
 
1) Beginners... I want it to run in MS4W, I want to tweak the CSS to
make the site my own, and I want to add/edit data and use the built in
services. Mention PostGIS/QGIS. If we have a mapfile/mapbook editor/data
loader by this time we should definitely show that... however, that
looks like it's been pushed to 3.0. Of course there is nothing saying we
won't have 3.0 out by then.
 
2) Experts.... I saw this last year and have been using it in
production. I want to write services, I want to contribute to the
code/docs, What's this OpenLayers stuff inside and how can i leverage
that. I want to do cool stuff with PostGIS + custom services. Possibly a
discussion w/the audience of what people are doing and what worked and
what didn't. (Hey they are experts, they may know something we don't.)
We could do a mini code sprint too... bring in your problems, and vote
in the first 30 minutes... then code for the rest.
 
Thanks,
Brian
