Call for Presentations
The Conference Planning Committee is now accepting abstracts for presentations and panel discussions. The 2010 gathering of the Delaware GIS Community is set for February 10, 2010, at the Sheraton Conference Center in Dover, Delaware.
The conference theme –Think Spatially, Connect/Act/Lead Globally– highlights the connected nature of the physical world, as reflected in the geospatial data we all share. It also celebrates the importance of the GIS Community as a network of professionals who work together, develop and share data, and support each other's efforts to serve our clients and constituents.
The Conference Planning Committee would like to see content ideas that reflect the conference theme, but abstracts focused on other issues and aspects of the GIS community are welcome.
