East Lansing, MI -The Annual IMAGIN Conference, Geography on the Move: Managing the Change, will take place May 3-5, 2004 at the Holiday Inn - South/Convention Center in Lansing, Michigan. Presentations from GIS professionals across the state will showcase an amazing collection of accomplishments in township planning, Internet GIS, emergency management, land usage, document management, and much, much more. Learn about everything from LiDAR to GIS in Schools.
An important keynote address will be presented by Dorothy Albright, GIS Program Manager for the Fire and Aviation Management Division of the US Forest Service in California. Along with her colleagues, she will discuss the use of geospatial technologies for situational awareness and decision-making during the 2003 Southern California wild fires.
This year, the conference committee has put together some remarkable panel discussions and coordinated sessions to make sure that all of the important topics are covered. Sessions will focus on a number of topics including Utility GIS, Natural Resources, Local Government, Web GIS, Aerial Imagery, Homeland Security, GIS Certification, Mobile Mapping, and State/Federal Issues.
Workshops are scheduled on Wednesday morning. Two-hour classes on CAD Conversion, GeoDatabases, Cartography, Census Data, and Aerial Photography are certain to provide information you need to help you with your job.
After the workshops and a Map Crawl on Wednesday, tee off at MSU's Forest Akers Golf Course, one of the best collegiate facilities in the country. The IMAGIN Golf Outing will be the perfect way to end the conference!
