More has been posted at the UMN Mapserver website so get some more info if you are thinking about going. Of course SDSU isn’t exactly downtown, but with the Trolley now going out beyond SDSU you don’t have to drive at all from downtown San Diego.
This is the perfect opportunity to learn more about open source GIS while on vacation (I mean at the ESRI UC). Hey free pizza and soda!
Make sure you RSVP to Dana Nibby (danaspatial {at} yahoo.com) and let them know you are attending. I’m going to do it right now.
